| Engine 3-5 |
2005 Pierce Dash
2005 Pierce Dash pumper-tanker that is used for structure and vehicle fires where water supply is limited. Because a significant portion of the response area that Paoli Fire Company covers is not protected by municipal water supplies with hydrants, this unit was specifically designed to carry a large water supply. Therefore, Engine 3-5 carries 3000 gallons of water and uses a 2000 GPM Waterous pump to supply several preconnected handlines. It also carries 1200' of large diameter supply line that can be used to receive or distribute water during fire ground operations. Further, so that it can contribute to tanker shuttle operations, Engine 3-5 is also equipped with a 10" rear dump valve. Perhaps the most useful feature of the unit is its CAFS (compressed-air foam system) which when used, allows the use of premixed class A or B foam through almost all of the discharge lines. In addition, it carries a remote-controlled telescoping Akron deck gun, a Will-Burt Nightscan telescoping light tower and a 10 kW Harrison generator.

| Tower 3 |
2000 Pierce Dash Sky-Arm
Tower 3 2000 Pierce Sky-Arm on a Dash chassis with a 100 ft. tower-ladder. This unit typically responds second for all structure fires and is equipped with various ground ladders, rescue tools, ventilation tools and salvage equipment. One unique feature of the main ladder is the ability to articulate the last 15 feet of the ladder/bucket (called the jib) independently. This allows greater flexibility and reach when the operators need to safely position the bucket in difficult locations (around wires, over parapet walls, down steep embankments, etc.). Tower 3 is also equipped with a 2000GPM Waterous pump and a 300 gallon booster tank which allow it to operate as an independent fire suppression unit when necessary.
