The Lisbon Fire Department is equipped with the most up to date equipment to handle most any type of fire call.
Fire Suppression
Whether a barn, vehicle, single or multi-family residence, or industrial building, the Lisbon Fire Department is capable of handing different types of fires. The Lisbon Fire Department is staffed with State of Wisconsin certified Level I or II Firefighters and Motor Pump Driver/ Operators.
Carbon Monoxide Detection/ Investigation
A carbon monoxide (CO) detector/ 4-gas meter is carried on our Engine 2662 and is used to detect the source that is emitting carbon monoxide (CO). This detector is used for the safety of residential and department personnel. This device is not used as a final determinant of the cause or repair.
In addition to structure fires, the Lisbon Fire Department is equipped to extinguish grass/ brush fires. With the use of 2681 (Grass Rig) and 2689 (ATV), most fires are quickly extinguished.
Fire Inspection
If you own a business or reside in the town and have any questions concerning the fire safety codes or violations you received, please contact the fire inspector at the station.
