The New Philadelphia Fire Department is a Class Four (ISO) and has a long history of dedicated service to our community and to our county.  Our goal as a department can best be summed up by the "Preface" and "Covenant" of our employee handbook.

 The preface states:
"The New Philadelphia Fire Department was established in 1859 for the protection of the citizens of New Philadelphia.  Since that time the goal of this department has been to afford the best possible Fire Protection, and since 1974, the best Emergency Medical service available.  We are proud of our heritage and strive to continue meeting the goal established by our founding members."

 The covenant states:
"The New Philadelphia Fire Department and its members shall strive to provide the best possible fire suppression, prevention and education services possible along with a dedicated and modern emergency medical service."

 We shall strive to look professional, act professional, talk professional and be professional in the performance of all our duties.  We shall strive to maintain a high degree of unity and teamwork in all of our functions"

 If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the department or stop by for a visit. We always welcome people to come see "THEIR" fire department. 

 We would like to thank Mike Henry from Web Solutions and Associates for designing and producing this WebPage for us.
