Paris Fire Department

This site is dedicated to the officers & members of Paris Fire Department past, present and future. Mission Statement: We, the members of the Paris Fire Department, dedicate our efforts to provide for the safety and welfare of the public through preservation of life, property and the environment. Paris is a paid on call department and provide the residents of our town with many services, including Vehicle Rescue Extrication, Heavy Duty Rescue, and of course any type of Firefighting. We also provide Mutual Aid to all surrounding communities. Paris covers approximately 65 square miles and has a population of approximately 4800 residents. Through the efforts of the department over the last five years, we recently acquired an ISO rating of 4. We are very proud of this accomplishment as we were currently rated a 6 /9. We recently moved into our new station which is a five bay drive through with offices and a large meeting room. We are very proud of our new facility and welcome visitors. Chief Brad Frost

Fire Prevention Tips

  • Smoke alarms save lives. Install a smoke alarm outside each sleeping area and on each additional level of your home.
  • If people sleep with doors closed, install smoke alarms inside sleeping areas, too.
  • Use the test button to check each smoke alarm once a month. When necessary, replace batteries immediately. Replace all batteries at least once a year.
  • Vacuum cobwebs and dust away from your smoke alarms monthly.
  • Replace your smoke alarms every ten years.
  • Smoke alarms become less sensitive over time.
  • Consider having one or more working fire extinguishers in your home. Get training from the fire department in how to use them.
  • Consider installing an automatic fire sprinkler system in your home.
