City of Humble Fire Department Apparatus
Engine l
Staffed 24 hours a day, the Humble Fire Department's newest pumper is this 2009 1500 gpm Ferrara Igniter powered by a Cummins diesel with an Allison transmission.

Medic Unit 327 (Medic 1)
This Type I ambulance is a 2009 model Dodge RAM 3500 chassis with a Frazier built body. The Frazier bodies allow the department to re-chassis the units every few years. The body, being built of high quality aluminum, can last for over a decade only requiring refurbishment when a new chassis is placed underneath. The units also have a generator which supply power to the rear air conditioner and reduces the large electrical load which normally overloads the chassis’ alternator and batteries. All of the ambulances at the Humble Fire Department, when in service, are licensed as Mobile Intensive Care Units and staffed with at least one Paramedic. Being equipped identically, all of the units have state of the art equipment required to treat cardiac emergencies, strokes, trauma, and any other emergencies that might arise on a daily basis.
Some equipment includes:
|
Zoll 12 lead Monitors which include defibrillators, pacers, and end tidal capnography |
|
Stryker hydraulic over electric stretchers |
|
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure machines |
