What Is An ISO Fire Rating

An ISO fire rating is a score provided to fire departments and insurance companies by the Insurance Services Office (ISO). The score reflects how prepared a community and area is for fires.

What Does This Mean For Our Citizens?

If your fire department has a strong score from the ISO, this suggests to your insurance provider that the likelihood of your home being destroyed by a fire is low.  This means you may be able to download the documents listed below, provide them to your insurance company, and qualify for lower homeowners insurance rates.
