Looking good in Boynton Beach, FL with two new fire stations! Both have MagneGrip Straight Suction Rail (SSR) Systems installed, which will help keep the stations clean and protect first responders from the cancer-causing risk of diesel exhaust.

It was fantastic to be back at Potter County (TX) FD installing a MagneGrip Straight Suction Rail (SSR) System in their newest fire station, #1. As you can see, the installation team is in the process of installing what will be five hose drops. This is a brand-new fire station and an impressive facility. Thank you, Chief Richard Lake and Assistant Chief Pat Fitzpatrick, for the opportunity to protect the health of your first responders against cancer causing diesel exhaust fumes. We look forward to working with you again. #pottercountyfd #pottercountytx
Firefighter cancer prevention involves many aspects. This article is a good summary of what to do outside and inside the firehouse. For the best in exhaust removal, look for MagneGrip's blue hose, as shown in the article.

We recently installed an exhaust removal system in two Cleveland Heights (OH) fire stations. The Straight Suction Rail (SSR) System is designed to fit firehouses with little space to spare. The overhead aluminum suction rail serves as part of the exhaust duct system and uses the least amount of hose for an effective and compact system. It was a pleasure to work with you, Chief Dave Freeman and staff!

When fighting fires, firefighters protect themselves from toxins, soot and chemical fumes to avoid long-term health consequences. Shouldn’t they have the same protection inside in the firehouse? MagneGrip Group is proud to support first responders with exhaust removal and air purification systems.

Miami Dade, FL has a new fire station, equipped with our MagneGrip Straight Suction Rail System. The photos show Station #29’s exhaust removal system in place – from the hose that attaches to the tailpipe, to the ductwork that draws the exhaust emissions along the ceiling and finally out of the building. An auto-start sensor switches on the exhaust fan when the truck engine is started. Enjoy the clean air in your new firehouse, Miami Dade. It was a pleasure working with you.

Broken Bow (OK) Fire & Rescue Station #1 recently installed a MagneGrip Exhaust Removal System. Consisting of Vertical Stack Rail (VSR) and Sliding Balancer Track (SBT) Systems, diesel exhaust from the apparatus is now drawn through the overhead rails and vented outside the station. Protecting the health of Broken Bow’s first responders is paramount and MagneGrip’s “100% effective capture” helps with that goal.

When vehicles are hooked up exhaust emissions are drawn into the rail and ductwork and exhausted to the outside.
Very nice facility, Seminole EMS. It was a pleasure working with you.
Milton Fire-Rescue Department received a FEMA grant to install exhaust removal systems in stations #41 and #43.
