Skippack Township and Skippack Fire Company are asking residents to assist by keeping fire hydrants free of snow and ice during winter weather. Clearing hydrants can make a critical difference in the Township’s ability to provide quick and effective emergency response when it matters most.
Ensuring hydrants are visible and easily accessible allows firefighters to quickly locate and use them in the event of a fire emergency. Even a few minutes saved can have a significant impact on protecting lives and property.
Residents who are able are encouraged to clear snow and ice from hydrants near their homes, taking care to create a clear path around them. This small act of community cooperation helps keep Skippack Township safer for everyone. Guidelines of how to clear are found in the graphic.
Skippack Township thanks residents for their continued support and assistance, especially during severe winter conditions.
