   Third  Ward  Firewalkers

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.
