FIRE PUMP SYSTEM
Due to the multiple building styles and layouts of a rescue pumper the Fargo Fire Department is letting
the builder configure the pump location where they feel it is in the best location. The Fargo Fire
Department will accept either a mid mount or a rear mount location for the pump, with the rear mount
being preferred. No matter what design is submitted the builder must supply the Fargo Fire Department
with ten (10) locations and contacts where the design is being used in a climate similar to Fargo in order
to insure there will be no problems with the pump in the future.
