Help us, help you. Every second counts in the event of a fire and this takes an extra person away from many other tasks at the scene. The quicker we can hook up to a hydrant, the quicker we can assist you. Please help us by keeping fire hydrants near your house or business clear of snow. We thank you for your help.
