MAD DOG CAFs
Introducting HME Ahrens-Fox new, patent pending MAD DOGTM compressed air foam system. No more endless adjustments of foam proportioning and air injection valves. Simply charge the CAFs line with water, activate the foam system and push the CAFS button. The MAD DOGTM instantly supplies 150-GPM of fire smothering, long range compressed air foam to quickly knockdown wildland, vehicle and structure fires.

Best of all, the MAD DOGTM is the most affordable, heavy duty, structural grade CAFs system on the market, due in part, to the HME Ahrens-Fox state of the art air compressor and precise solid-state controller. If you have wanted to bring the firefighting advantages of CAFs to your department, but could not afford the other manufacturers' high prices, the MAD DOGTM is your answer, developed and built by the world's largest single-source manufacturer of stainless steel fire apparatus, American Owned, HME Ahrens-Fox.




The MAD DOG TM is easy to operate. Simply push the on switch and select wet or dry foam--it's that easy. The controller assembly is all solid state and the switch panel freatures marine grade, waterproof switch gear for long life with less maintenance. All controls are grouped together on the pump panel for ease of operation and are intergrated into HME Ahrens-Fox HydraTM Technology water movement system.





"I just wanted to take a moment of your time to express our sincere thanks for all of your assistance in the building of our new Aerial and Pumper.

The Village of Glenwood is a growing community with limited resources to provide emergency services to our residents. The inhreent value built into your apparatus allows us to prepare for the challenges that lie ahead by purchasing two rigs at once.

I would be remiss if I did not compliment Denise Bussing for all of her assistance and attention to detail. Your entire staff is to be commended for producing extraordinary apparatus with no hassles for the customer.

Our local dealer, Specialty Vehicle Service, Inc., has been phenomenal as well. Mike, Ted, and Mike are to applauded for therir continual support of our purchase as well.

I could not have asked for a smoother process. I will certainly continue to patronize HME in the future.

I would be happy to provide our vehicles for demonstration purposes at any time. We are very proud of our new rigs and you should be too."
