TOWER 1

These photos show our 2010 fire aerial, which is housed at station 1 in downtown. This vehicle helps our firefighters access fires and patients in difficult to reach areas. 

  • Firefighting Strength

    • A 1,500 gallon-per-minute pump provides strong water flow to fight fires.

    • A 300-gallon water tank allows crews to start working right away, even without a hydrant.

  • Aerial Device

    • The truck has a 95' aerial device with platform used to apply water to fire from an elevated height and rescue people trapped or stuck in difficult to reach areas. 

  • Special Equipment

    • This truck contains multiple ground ladders some that can reach 35'

    • This truck carries rope rescue equipment used to access and remove patients from steep embankments, cell towers, and other areas where climbing is required. 

    • This truck carries a rescue litter used to carry patients over difficult terrain such as riverbanks, steep embankments, uneven terrain, and over structural debris.

This truck is a critical resource for our community; a more thorough explanation can be learned here:
