Flower Hill Hose Co. 1

Headquartered on Haven Avenue, Flower Hill Hose Company No. 1 was organized in 1905. Just like Protection, Flower Hill operates three Fire Engines used to supply water and/or foam.

Two of Flower Hill's latest pumpers have the unique capability of "pre-piped foam", a process where water and a foam agent are mixed automatically by the pumper when required for situations and conditions ere the application of water is not suitable.

Each of Protection and Flower Hill's trucks carry some 3000 feet of hoseline ranging in diameter from 1" ("booster lines") to 4" ("supply lines"). At the scene of a fire, Protection and Flower Hill work as a team to provide the necessary agents for fire suppression. Effective fire suppression comes about as the result of successful coordination of the various companies operations.
