A.W. Chesterton Co. recently donated two specialized Class D fire extinguishers to the Groveland Fire Department. They are specifically designed to combat fires involving combustible metals, such as magnesium, sodium and potassium.
One extinguisher will be placed on Engine 1 at Central Station and the other on Engine 3 at South Station. In a release, the town said the addition improves the department’s ability to respond effectively to specialized fire incidents and reinforces the town’s commitment to firefighter and public safety.
“We are grateful to A.W. Chesterton for their donation and ongoing support,” said Fire Chief Robert Valentine. “These specialized extinguishers will be a valuable asset to our team and allow us to better serve our community.”
Besides Valentine, taking part in the presentation were Town Administrator Rebecca Oldham; A.W. Chesterton Co. Environment, Health and Safety Associate Director Martha Mittelstaedt and Environment, Health and Safety Specialist Shimals Abebe; and Groveland Firefighters/EMTs Daniel Manning and Nicholas Dalissandro.
