Custom Built Fire Apparatus
| The Gowans-Knight Company is proud of it's unique capabilities to design and built fire and rescue apparatus to meet the diverse needs of the fire/rescue service. Many of GK's employees are active Firefighters and EMT's. These folks truly understand the equipment needs of today's fire/rescue personnel. All fabrication, graphics, electrical, and painting operations are done on site, with no subcontracting of outside services. GK has built and maintains a complete PUMP TESTING facility to satisfy the needs of not only the new apparatus, but the need for pump recertification as well. The photos shown below, represent a small sampling of the fire/rescue apparatus, designed and built by the Gowans-Knight Company, Watertown, Connecticut. |
