Leading Fire Training Equipment Manufacturer Enhances Texas Fire Department’s Hands-On Training Capabilities
Georgetown, TX – Symtech Fire, a premier manufacturer of realistic fire training simulators, has successfully completed the installation of a state-of-the-art SUV vehicle fire simulator and LPG tank training prop for the Georgetown Fire Department in Texas. This advanced training system will provide firefighters with critical hands-on experience in managing vehicle fires and propane emergencies in a safe, controlled environment.
