Thermal Imaging
South Strabane Fire Department has (2) two Thermal Imaging Cameras that are in service. These units allow the firefighters to see through dark and smoke filled structures.
Notebooks
The department is currently using Laptops in their apparatus to have QRP’s (quick response plans) available to them when responding to an emergency. These computer’s allow firefighters to gain knowledge on subjects such as: location of any hazards, power disconnects, heating units, or any people needing assistance due to any medical problems or disabilities.
