Hamilton Fire Department (Ontario)

''This article refers to the city in Ontario's Golden Horseshoe. For other places named Hamilton, see Hamilton Fire Department.''



History
In 2001, the original City of Hamilton was amalgamated with the other municipalities in Hamilton-Wentworth Region, merging HFD with five additional fire departments. These were:
 * Ancaster Fire Department
 * Dundas Fire Department
 * Flamborough Fire Department
 * Glanbrook Township Fire Department
 * Stoney Creek Fire Department

The newly amalgamated department was named Hamilton Emergency Services (Fire), but reverted to its original name in 2012.

Department Overview
Hamilton operates a composite department with full-time and part-time/paid-on-call suppression staff. Stations 1 through 12, 20 and 23 are full-time. Stations 17, 21 and 24 are composite. In each of the composite stations, full-time staff are assigned to operate the Engine while volunteers use the other trucks. The remaining stations (14, 15, 16, 18, 19, 25, 26, 27, 28) are part-time/paid-on-call.

Three of the urban pumpers and all rural pumpers are designated as Pumps. All other urban pumpers are designated as Engines.

Apparatus Roster

 * All pump/tank measurements are in Imperial gallons.
 * The six-digit numbers following the unit designation are shop numbers. For older apparatus, the first three digits indicate which pre-amalgamation town or city originally purchased the apparatus. Numbers starting with 310 refer to Stoney Creek, 320 to Ancaster, 330 Dundas, 340 Flamborough and 350 Glanbrook. Numbers starting with 300 denote trucks purchased by the pre-amalgamation City of Hamilton or obtained post-amalgamation. The three remaining numbers are department ID numbers.

 * In 2019 the Fire Department will begin training firefighters from 2 full-time and 3 volunteer stations as water and ice rescue technicians and provide them with the necessary equipment for these rescues.
