Routine maintenance to keep up the demands of your EMS vehicle can be a challenge for some repair facilities. We have technicians well versed in the repair and maintenance of smaller diesel motors and the troubled 6.0 Power Strokes.

Inspection & Service

Many local fire apparatus repair facilities are not PA licensed inspection stations. What does that mean? It means additional down time while your apparatus is shuffled from facility to facility, which in the end results in longer down time and higher bills.

Getting PM’s done while the unit is out for annual inspection is a great idea to minimize down time. Why not get it all done at one facility by the same knowledgeable techs. Not only can we perform an inspection on your apparatus but all of the necessary repairs including steering, suspension, driveline, DOT and motor issues can be addressed at one place. This allows us to pass along that savings to the customer.
