Structural Fire Engines

Structural fire engines are the most versatile equipment that we have when responding to emergencies.  These engines are ready for fire response, hazardous materials incidents, vehicle extrication, and other rescue scenarios.   

E-One Engine

This is our first due engine that was put into service in November of 2024.

Engine 231 has a 1,000-gallon tank that pumps at 1,250 gallons per minute.  

This apparatus was purchased in cooperation with the Whitefish Fire Service Area in July of 2024.

HME Engine

This is our second due engine was delivered in early 2025.

Engine 231 has a 1,000-gallon tank that pumps at 1,250 gallons per minute.  


Red fire engine number 231

This is our second due engine, which is equipped with four-wheel drive.  

Engine 232 holds 750 gallons of water with a 1,500 gallon per minute pump. 

Ladder Truck

A ladder truck is needed in our fleet.  A ladder truck serves two main functions:

  • First, it acts as an elevated master stream to fight fire in large or continuous buildings, like those in downtown Whitefish.  
  • Second, it provides a ladder for rescues over the 28-foot working height.  

Even the typical 35-foot building height is beyond our reach.  A ladder truck would provide valuable ISO points that would likely save our commercial property owners within 2.5 miles of our fire station a substantial amount of money on property insurance.
