Inspections

Fire Suppression

Waltham Fire Dept. Logo

Engine, Ladder and Rescue companies perform various inspections throughout the city in addition to their emergency response calls. Most of these inspections are performed while "in-service", meaning our units will leave the inspection and respond to emergency calls when needed and then return to the inspections.

Fire suppression handles inspections of commercial properties, hotels, nursing homes, boarding houses and smoke detectors at single and two family homes. Additionally, each year our companies inspect every fire hydrant in the city and test all our fire department hoses.  Furthermore, each day our fire fighters inspect the fire apparatus and equipment that their lives depend on.
