Fire Departments & Districts

Live fire training in safe structures designed for repeated use is a high priority for most fire departments and districts. A well-designed burn building is an invaluable tool for training new and veteran firefighters in a variety of response scenarios.

And now, this preferred training method is within reach of most, because WHP Trainingtowers builds training towers that deliver safe, custom-configured burn buildings that deliver exceptional return on investment. Especially when that investment means saving the lives of brave men and women who train to protect our communities.
