ISO Accreditation

What is ISO?
The Insurance Services Office (ISO) use the Public Protection Classification to gauge the ability of a local fire department to respond to fires.  A community's public fire protection information is collected and analyzed by ISO using its Fire Suppression Rating Schedule.  A Classification of 1 to 10 is then assigned based upon the results of the survey.  Class 1 is the highest rating, and Class 10 is an indication of no fire protection.

How does the ISO rating affect me?
The ISO Public Protection Classification is used by the insurance industry in determining insurance premiums for properties with the community.
