About Rensselaer Fire Department:
The Rensselaer City Fire Department is a combination department consisting of career and volunteer personnel. The Career staff are all members of IAFF Local 2643. The volunteer members are called to duty on all box fire alarms and when additional manpower is needed. The volunteer members carry their personal protective equipment in their vehicles and respond directly to the fire scene(except mutual aid calls in which they respond to the stations). The Rensselaer City Fire Department protects the city with 3 engine companies, 1 truck company, a fire investigation unit,and a chiefs truck. We have a county agreement with the Defreestville, Clinton Heights, and East Greenbush Fire Departments. Normally on a confirmed structure fire these departments respond with an engine each to the city for station coverage or unless they are special called to the scene.
