The Sharps Hill Volunteer Fire Department is located in Shaler Township in the Northern Suburbs of Allegheny County Pennsylvania. We are an all volunteer department that offers Fire and Quick Response Emergency Medical Services to the residents of Sharps Hill and surrounding communities. Sharps Hill is one of six all volunteer fire departments in Shaler Township. Our primary response vehicle is Engine 1, a 1993 Pierce Dash 1250 GPM Pumper. One of the items you will notice is that our vehicles are not the traditional red color. The department changed to a blue and white color scheme with the arrival of Engine 1. One of the reasons for the color change was to follow the colors of the Township. There were, and still to this day, many people who believe that all fire vehicles need to be red.
