Welcome
to Station 25, one of the busiest
and most aggressive stations in
the city of Houston! Station 25
is in District 46, but also responds
with Districts 8 and 20.
Station
25 was originally built in 1928
and located at Blodgett and
Velasco
on the southeast side of Houston.
in 1979 Station 25 was rebuilt and
is currently located at Scott and
Rosewood. In 2003 Station 25 celebrated
it's 75th year of serving the 3rd
Ward area. Station 25 transformed
the bay doors to look like FDNY
fire stations by painting the doors
red with gold and black numbers
in honor of the firefighters lost
on 9/11. We are also the only
station with a 8'x8' logo mounted
within the station. the logo was
painted by Capt. Salazar from Station
35B when they were backed in while
their station was being remodeled.

Check your
smoke detector
Test smoke detectors at least
once a month. Nearly all smoke
detectors have a test button,
simply push the test button and
the alarm will sound.
Clean smoke detectors at least
once a year. Dust and other
particles in the air can build
up over time and decrease the
sensitivity of a smoke detector.
The best way to clean a smoke
detector is with a vacuum hose.
Replace the entire smoke
detector at least once every ten
years. Smoke detectors do wear
out over time.
Hard-wired smoke detectors
should be tested, cleaned, and
replaced just as often as
non-wired smoke detectors.
Every bedroom should have a
smoke detector. It's also
recommended to put one in living
rooms, kitchens and hallways.
you can never have too many!
Smoke detector facts
• Smoke detectors increase your chance of surviving a fire by 50%.
• An estimated 1/3 of
American
homes have smoke detectors
that do not work.
