From The Chief
Chief Scott Labonte
"Pierce went above and beyond to ensure the safety of our build committee during the pandemic. Our new 100' Ascendant Tower offers more reach possibilities and provides a safer working environment for our firefighters, especially during harsh winters. Pierce engineers accommodated our need for pump components and other vital systems to stay within normal operating temperatures in the cold. Their commitment to firefighter safety is second to none."
