Can Your Home Be Seen?
In the event of an
emergency, every second counts.
By having your
residence properly identified, emergency vehicles can find
your home without unnecessary delays.
Please
review the following key points to keep in mind in
regards to your address.
An
illuminated address can be seen up to 175 feet.
Always
have your address properly illuminated, either by a
"back-lit" model or by placing a light
above the numbers.
Always
use a contrasting color when selecting numbers.
Avoid
painting over numbers, this renders them difficult to
see in the daylight or at night time.
Replace
missing numbers and assure that they are securely
attached.
Choose
numbers of appropriate size - Address numbers on a
residence should be a minimum of 4 inches and 8 inches
on a commercial property.
Please
contact the administrative offices should you have any
additional questions.
