Heating Station: Designed to supply heat to a building or district heating network. Typically includes a heat exchanger, pumps, and control systems. Cooling Station: Used for cooling applications, such as district cooling or industrial processes. Includes chillers, cooling towers, or heat exchangers. Combined Heating and Cooling Station: Provides both heating and cooling capabilities. Often used in systems with seasonal demand changes. Heat Recovery Station: Recovers waste heat from industrial processes or exhaust air. Reuses the recovered heat for other purposes, improving energy efficiency. Compact Modular Station: Prefabricated and pre-assembled in a factory. Easy to transport and install on-site. Ideal for small to medium-sized applications. Skid-Mounted Station: Mounted on a skid or frame for easy mobility. Commonly used in temporary or portable applications. Containerized Station: Housed in a shipping container for protection and portability. Suitable for harsh environments or remote locations. District Heating Station: Connects to a district heating network to supply heat to buildings. Includes heat exchangers, pumps, and control valves. Geothermal Heat Exchange Station: Utilizes geothermal energy as the heat source. Includes ground-source heat pumps and heat exchangers. Solar Thermal Station: Uses solar collectors to capture and transfer heat. Often includes thermal storage systems. Waste Heat Recovery Station: Captures and reuses waste heat from industrial processes or power plants. Residential Heat Exchange Station: Designed for small-scale residential heating or cooling. Compact and energy-efficient. Commercial Heat Exchange Station: Used in office buildings, shopping malls, or hotels. Handles larger heating or cooling loads. Industrial Heat Exchange Station: Designed for industrial processes, such as chemical plants or manufacturing facilities. Often includes robust components for high-temperature or high-pressure applications. District Energy Station: Supplies heating or cooling to an entire district or community. Water-to-Water Heat Exchange Station: Transfers heat between two water circuits. Common in district heating and cooling systems. Includes large-capacity heat exchangers and pumps.

Bill Friedrich recently shared photos of four new fire trucks delivered to divisions within 12, 13, and 19. What caught my attention is that the first three units are all painted in the classic black-over-red scheme, a color combination that Wheaton has maintained for decades. St. Charles used to have white-over-lime-green apparatus but switched to black-over-red several years back. Oak Brook Terrace kept a white-over-red theme for quite some time before transitioning to the current black-over-red configuration with their latest truck.
One of the standout additions is the 2010 Pierce Impel PUC (serial number 23210) that Wheaton received. Engine 431 boasts a powerful 1,500-GPM pump and carries 750 gallons of water. The design is robust, reflecting Wheaton's commitment to reliability and performance.
Over in Oak Brook Terrace, they welcomed a new engine built by Marion on a Spartan chassis with a Gladiator Classic MFDR cab. This engine features a 1,500-GPM pump and a massive 1,000-gallon water tank. Interestingly, it marks a significant change from their traditional white-roofed vehicles, as this is the first rig with a black cab roof. The interior layout of the engineer's compartment is particularly well-thought-out, making tool access seamless and efficient. The rear hose bed is designed with safety in mind, featuring NFPA-mandated secure webbing. The rear view of Engine 311 showcases a sleek, low-profile hose bed, while the hydraulic ladder rack on the officer's side adds functionality. The curbside also includes hydraulic tools for vehicle extrications, enhancing its versatility in emergency situations.
In St. Charles, Truck 101 operates with a 2010 Pierce Arrow XT quint capable of reaching up to 100 feet. This truck has a 1,500-GPM pump and a 500-gallon water tank, with its 100-foot aerial constructed from aluminum for strength and durability.
Meanwhile, Manhattan introduced a new engine built by Alexis on a Spartan chassis with a Gladiator Classic cab. Engine 1221 features a 1,500-GPM pump and holds 750 gallons of water. These trucks represent not only an upgrade in firefighting capabilities but also a shift in aesthetic preferences across different departments.
It’s fascinating to see how these changes reflect both continuity and innovation in fire department equipment. Each truck seems to bring something unique to its respective department, whether it’s a nod to tradition or a bold step forward in design and technology. It’s clear that maintaining readiness and efficiency remains paramount for these departments as they continue to serve their communities.
A Box Heat Exchange Station, also known as a Prefabricated Heat Exchange Station or Modular Heat Exchange Station, is a compact, pre-assembled unit used for heating, cooling, or heat recovery in district energy systems, HVAC systems, or industrial processes. These stations are designed for easy installation, energy efficiency, and space-saving. Below is a classification of Box Heat Exchange Stations based on their design, function, and application:
