Deployed from stations 1, 2, and 3, Nashua Fire Rescue has the ability to provide ladder coverage to
approximately 65% of the city along its central and eastern core. Prior to adding or removing ladder
companies to the deployment strategy for Nashua, the Department should consult with its local ISO
representative to discuss the potential implications and impact to the overall rating when ladder companies
are added or removed.
ISO Fire Station Coverage
In order to receive a PPC® rating that indicates fire coverage is available from ISO, structures must generally
be located within 5 miles of a fire station. Areas outside of 5 miles are subject to receiving a PPC® rating of
10, meaning that no fire department coverage is available. Within the City of Nashua, all areas lie within 5-
miles of a fire station and are eligible to receive a rating based upon the performance of the fire department.
