Tour this engine with General Services Manager Pete Pegadiotes
Pierce Manufacturing – Take a walk around Alameda County Fire’s Arrow XT Pumper with General Services Manager Pete Pegadiotes.
Due to the electrical hazard that is associated with the Alameda, California area, this rig is equipped with wooden ladders, ensuring safety for all crew members. The department also continued with the use of the Husky 3 Foam System and large storage compartments on the pumper due to success in the past.
Standardizing these two features throughout all their rigs allows for engineers and crew members to always know where controls and equipment is.
Throughout the rig, 12-volt lighting is used, which eliminates the use of a generator and cuts down on the overall cost.
