SUPPRESSION APPARATUS
Ashburn Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department’s Suppression pieces serve as both fire suppression apparatus and rescue apparatus. Units are staffed 24/7 and operate from both Ashburn’s Station 6 and Landsdowne Public Safety Station 22. For suppression, Station 6 houses three engines, one tower and one truck. Station 22 houses two engines. Explore our suppression apparatus below.
Truck 606B
- 2001 Spartan Gladiator built by Smeal
- Equipped with a 75 foot rear-mount ladder
- In 2008, the truck’s pump and water tank were removed so that Truck 606B could operate as both a ladder truck and an extrication unit. Most of the extrication tools (“Jaws of Life”) are located in the large cabinets behind the cab.
- T606B is held by AVFRD as a county reserve apparatus
