Ladders & Aerial Apparatus

Riverhead Fire Department's aerial apparatus provide elevated access, rescue capabilities, fire suppression and specialized equipment for incidents throughout the fire district and surrounding communities.

Tower Ladder 6-2-6

1999 Spartan / LTI Tower Ladder

A 102-foot tower ladder in Riverhead? With the tallest building in the district only six stories high, why is such a large aerial needed?

The answer is simple: most of the ladder is used for reach, not height.

The tower ladder's extended reach allows firefighters to operate over setbacks, parking areas, power lines and other obstacles that may prevent the apparatus from being positioned directly alongside a building.

Combining the capabilities of an engine and a ladder truck, this quint is equipped with a 1,500-gallon-per-minute pump and a mounted aerial ladder with a reach of 75 feet.

The apparatus carries a variety of forcible-entry tools and specialized equipment. It is also designated as the department's Rapid Intervention Team and Firefighter Assist and Search Team apparatus for mutual aid responses.
