Overview of Fire Stations in Auburn Hills

At the end of 2022, AHFD owned and operated a total of seventeen (17) vehicles which include three (3) administrative vehicles, one (1) command vehicle, two (2) fire prevention vehicles, one (1) utility vehicle, four (4) rescue ambulances, two (2) fire engines, three (3) aerial ladder trucks and one (1) special response vehicle.
EMS - Rescues
All AHFD’s four (4) State licensed Advanced Life Support (ALS) ambulances are equipped to handle Medical First Responder (MFR), Basic Life Support (BLS), and Advanced Life Support (ALS) emergency medical services and transportation.

Suppression - Fire Engines
One of the most used suppression vehicles that not only transports firefighting personnel, but also carries all necessary tools/equipment to the scene is the fire engine. The Fire Department currently has a 2009 and a 2015 fire engine, both of which have a 750-gallon water tank, a 30-gallon foam tank and can pump 1,500 gallons of water per minute. Each vehicle carries 1000 ft of 4” large diameter hose, 600 ft of 2.5” hose and 900 ft of 1.75” hose to fight different type of fires and to assist neighboring fire departments. Each engine also has the needed tools to handle vehicle accidents with or without patient entrapments, small fuel spills, and other rescue emergencies. These engines are also capable of providing BLS medical services.
Suppression - Aerial Ladder Trucks
In addition to the fire engines, there are three (3) aerial ladder trucks or “Quints” that are similar in nature. One(1) of the aerial/Quints is a 1997 vehicle with a 75-foot extendable/retractable articulating ladder and 1,000 ft. of 4” large diameter hose. The other is a 2021 vehicle with a 78-foot ladder, 1,000 ft. of 5" large diameter hose and a 30 gallon foam tank. Both have a 500-gallon water tank, a compliment of ground ladders ranging from 16 ft to 35 ft, 600 ft of 2.5” hose, 500-700 ft of 1.75” hose. Both aerials have the capability of pumping 1,500-2,000 gallons of water per minute. The third aerial/Quint is a 2018 with a 400 gallon water tank, a 30 gallon foam tank, a 100-foot extendable/ retractable articulating ladder, 950 ft of 5” large diameter hose, the same amount of ladders and smaller diameter fire hoses, and is capable of pumping 2,000 gallons of water per minute.
In 2022, AHFD put together a Fire Apparatus Committee, consisting of fire personnel, to gather information to spec out a new ladder truck/quint for the fire department. The committee completed their evaluation and will be anticipating the procurement of a new ladder truck/quint by 2025. This ladder truck/quint will significantly add to the complement of fire apparatus at AHFD.
