Newark, NJ FD MSU Handled by AAA

In the late winter and early spring of 2011 AAA Emergency Supply President Matthew Manfredi and New Jersey Sales Manager Ken Kiel met with Newark, NJ Fire Department leaders to coordinate a shift to AAA Emergency handling and coordinating the Mask Service Unit for the department. One year later, the process is in full swing and the progress has been extraordinary.

As part of this process, AAA Emergency Supply has fit tested every firefighter and fire officer in the Newark FD, Flow Tested and certified all Newark FD SCBA, and hydro tested all Newark FD cylinders. Additionally, the AAA Emergency team has aided the cylinder replacement process by color coding the FD’s cylinders based upon the year of manufacturing.

AAA Emergency Supply would like to thank Battalion Chief James Costa for his coordination of this large undertaking. AAA Emergency Supply looks forward to continuing the work and progress being made with the Newark FD.
