Before the invention of fire alarms, communities relied on each other to spot fires, spread the word, and tackle the flames. In 1852, Dr. William F. Channing and Moses Farmer changed the game by introducing the world's first fire alarm. 🔥 This groundbreaking device had a crank-operated handle that, when turned, alerted a nearby station, and an operator at the station would then relay the message to the fire department. However, using it posed challenges as people were reluctant to spend crucial moments cranking the handle instead of escaping the fire. While the 1852 system may appear complex by today's standards, it laid the foundation for modern fire alarm technology, reminding us of the progress made in fire safety over the years. 🚒🚨 #FireSafety #FireHistory #InnovationInFireProtection #LegacyOfInvention #Capitalguard #CuttingEdgeInnovations #UnparalleledProtection
