How can Firehouse handle my department specific rules and rotations?
Firehouse 24/7 has been built to handle fire departments and their unique situations. Firehouse 24/7 will implement any specific rules and requirements before going live and as part of the initial setup.
How are the firefighters contacted?
Firehouse 24/7 can be configured to message firefighters via mobile application notifications, text messages or email.
What training is required for firefighters, dispatchers and administrators?
As with most new technologies there will be a learning curve. However, given that many people are comfortable using web-based software (e.g. social media, Google docs and online calendars), the initial training period is relatively short. As few as one or two brief training sessions is usually all that is required.
Can Firehouse integrate with our other department systems?
Yes, Firehouse 24/7 currently has integrations to Payroll (MUNIS) and CAD (ProPhoenix). Firehouse is open to develop other integrations if required.
How much does it cost?
Firehouse is charged on a per firefighter/per annum base and depends on the modules and integrations that the department wishes to utilise. The savings in time, decreased errors and team satisfaction covers the cost many times over. Contact us for a no obligation free trial and quote.

There are no additional costs. All setup costs, including training are rolled into the annual service fee.
How many users can I have?
Every member of your fire department, including administration staff and management, will have access to the Firehouse 24/7 system. There is no limit to the number of users.
