CrewProtect: Reduce Airborne Contaminants in Your Fire Apparatus

About the CrewProtect™ Fire Apparatus Air Decontamination & Filtration System

What is CrewProtect?

You and your crew are exposed to harmful airborne contaminants even after leaving a call. Your firefighting gear carries contaminants that can release in the cab via a process called off-gassing. CrewProtect protects you, your firefighting crew, and your extended first responder crew from the air contamination and airborne threats that you face each day.

CrewProtect addresses three significant air contamination concerns for firefighters: particulates, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and aerosols that carry bacteria and viruses. This includes SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The CrewProtect system is a comprehensive solution that protects your crew from multiple carcinogenic contaminants that other air filtration systems miss. Plus, CrewProtect is safe! Some competing products are ineffective at removing particulates and VOCs and may unintentionally add more harmful elements, such as ozone and formaldehyde, to the environment.
