Illinois Fire Service Institute (IFSI)

As one of the nation’s premier firefighter training academies, IFSI prioritizes safety and operational readiness. With high daily vehicle movement and training volume, clean air protection was essential.

The Challenge

With up to 20 apparatus runs per day, IFSI required a system that could maintain air quality without disrupting training schedules or operational flow. The institute also conducted carbon monoxide testing to verify performance.

The Solution

MagneGrip provided:

  • Source-capture exhaust removal system

  • Automatic fan activation

  • Quick-release nozzle connection

  • Seamless integration into existing facility layout

The system was installed without interfering with daily training operations.

The Results

Carbon monoxide testing confirmed effective removal of harmful exhaust gases. Even under heavy daily use, the system maintained air quality while supporting fast-paced training environments.

“If you’re looking for a system to remove carbon monoxide… my choice would be MagneGrip.”
— Chief Tim Walsh, IFSI
