Annual PM

Annual inspections that make repair priorities clear.

Summit helps your department understand apparatus condition, spot issues early, and separate immediate repair needs from watch-list items.

A practical inspection visit with findings that matter.

Annual PM is hands-on apparatus work, not a paperwork exercise. The visit focuses on safety, reliability, visible wear, leaks, loose components, and conditions that can affect safe response.

  • Cab, body, compartments, chassis, engine, cooling, transmission, electrical, brakes, pump, tires, and related systems reviewed.
  • Wear, leaks, loose or missing hardware, safety concerns, and operational concerns documented clearly.
  • Repair recommendations prioritized in plain language for department review.
  • Pump, aerial, electrical, road, and weight testing can be scheduled with the PM visit when needed.
