The City of St. Louis Park Fire Department provides a one-on-one Car Seat Inspection Clinic to educate parents on how to correctly install their child restraints. We teach you how to properly install your car seats.

Did you know that 85% of car seats are found to be installed incorrectly? More than 100 children under the age of 11 are killed or severely injured in accidents involving motor vehicles in Minnesota. Nationally, more children die in motor vehicle accidents than from all childhood diseases combined.

Car Seat Clinics are by appointment only. Please call (952) 924-2595 during normal business hours (Monday – Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.)

Plan ahead! Car Seat Clinics book up fast and it may take several weeks or more to schedule an appointment. Sorry, we are not able to accommodate walk-ins as we only have a few certified car seat installers that provide this service and they are not always available.

Cost: To cover the costs of conducting Child Car Seat Safety inspections, the City of St. Louis Park Fire Department charges a car seat inspection fee of $25.00 for the first car seat or base inspection and a $10.00 fee for each additional car seat or base inspection. The fees associated with the car seat inspection must be pre-paid via VISA, MasterCard, cash or check and are non-refundable.

Each seat or base takes 30 minutes to install.

Appointments are scheduled as follows:

One seat: 30 Minutes Two seats or bases: 1 Hr Three seats or bases: 1 ½ Hrs

Please read the instructions and attempt to install the seat on your own prior to the appointment. Please also bring the car seat directions and the vehicle owner's manual with you and arrive approximately 10 minutes prior to your appointment time.

Car Seat Clinics are held at St. Louis Park Fire Station #1 - 3750 Wooddale Ave.

To schedule and appointment, please call 924-2595.

If your smoke detector is sounding
Stay calm and assess the situation.

If you smell smoke or see flames or smoke, leave your apartment immediately! Be sure to shut the room door and the apartment door on your way out. Pull the fire alarm on your way out, and call 911 from a neighbor's phone. The safest place to wait is outside the building.

If your burnt toast or oven broiler is causing the detector to sound, but there's no fire, don't open your hallway apartment door to clear the smoke from your unit. Opening the door may activate the entire building's fire alarm system. Instead, open a window and turn on the exhaust fan to clear out any smoke.

If your apartment smoke detector is sounding but you don't see or smell smoke, it may be a false alarm. Try fanning air across the detector with a piece of paper, opening a window or running the exhaust fan. Report the false alarm to the owner or caretaker and request a replacement smoke detector.
