FY2004 Fire Rescue Services Prioritized Additions (Wish List)
Priority 1 Items
Item;
Replacement personal protective ensembles (PPE)
Need:
PPEs for structural firefighting, even with limited exposure to fire combat, have a shelf life that
renders the thermal and vapor barrier protection ineffective at the expiration of that shelf Hfe.
Seven years is the generally accepted life span of PPE. We currently have members wearing
PPE in excess of twice the shelf life. This budget amount needs to be in place for every year,
adjusted for inflation, to enable Fire Rescue to annually replace one seventh of the PPEs in the
stations. /300 I d2 q'l}/o "I '7 I bOO "/

Committee Recommendation
/
This Committee recommends the purchase and distribution of the Lions Apparel
(JanesviHe) Protective Clothing Ensemble.
After weighing all the considerations for,ouf personnel in the field we found the _
JanesviUe to be of higher quality, the service provided to be exemplary, and the needs of
our department indicated a strong consideration for custom sized and constructed gear.

The Process for evaluating the protective clothing proceeded as folIows:
1. Test sets of gear were acquired from the following manufacturers; Globe,
Morning Pride. Quaker, Lions Apparel.
2. Each set was issued to a field member to evaluate, and was put into service.
3. After approximately 6 months of service each member was requested to write an
evaluation of the gear they were issued. They were asked to detail the training and
calls they participated in while evaluating the gear. Each set of gear was used in a
minimum of one live bum training.
4. All vendors that supplied gear were invited to the training facility to discuss and
exhibit their products, all field personnel were also invited to attend.
5. The committee discussed all infonnation gathered over the evaluation period and
voted in majority to recommend the Janesville gear.
Evaluation Observations and Comments
Both the Globe and Janesville gear excelled in short drying times after washing and use,
as well as wicking of perspiration from the body. Mobility Was not significantly restricted
by the Globe. Janesville, or Quaker gear. All sets of gear had equal heat protection
capabilities. There are significantly more construction and accessory options with the
Janesyjlle gear and service has been out standing. Quaker and Janesville both offer
custom sizing options as well as custom construction options. Janesville offers specialty
construction options such as a Firefighter rescue strap and sewn in harness. The stitching
quality of the Janesville gear is far superior under heavy use.
