About EFD
Enfield Fire District
No. 1 proudly protects 20,000 people living in an area of 16 square miles.
We operate out of two stations that protect a primarily residential area.
Our department is a public department whose members are on a combination of paid
and volunteer status. We have an ISO rating of four.
Enfield Fire District
No. 1 is one of five departments serving the town of Enfield. The total
town is 35 square miles with 48,000 people. Four of the five departments
are a combination of both paid and volunteer members. The oldest
department in the center section of town is full time all paid members. Similar
to the other departments, we are a separate tax district, serving the community
as a public fire service entity separate from the Town. We strive to
provide the best emergency services possible with a roster of community spirited
and primarily volunteer members trained to serve and protect in a safe manner.
We pride ourselves in the training provided to our members, the fire prevention
and Code enforcement service provided to the community and the efficient and
professional emergency services we provide. The District is a residential
community with a heavy mix of commercial and light industrial parcels, it is
bounded by a major river, is served by a major railroad line and interstate
highway and is in the runway approach to Bradley International Airport.
The department provides fire suppression, Hazardous Materials Incident response,
Rescue services and Supplemental EMS response with the Police Department
run BLS ambulance and private ALS ambulance. Our rescue capabilities
include: trench and confined space, building collapse, MVA extrication, heavy
rescue capabilities, shore based water rescue, hovercraft based swift water
rescue, cold/ice water rescue and rope rescue.
