Fire Suppession | Pierce Mfg

Organized, ergonomic, user-friendly operation.

Overview

Two Firefighters pumping water through a hose next to a Pierce Fire Truck.

Pierce offers three pump house configurations: side control with crosslays, side control with speedlays and a top mount with crosslays or speedlays. The pump house provides a home for the water pump, pre-connected hose, equipment storage in the cargo area and plumbing options specific to each apparatus. Pierce pump houses are completely independent structures that are mounted separate from the body compartments.

Pierce® Control Zone™ pump panel configurations are ergonomically organized in horizontal rows. Components are arranged and installed in a manner designed for user-friendly operation. Labels for gauge controls, bezels and discharges are color coded for ease of use.
