[ARCHIVED] Wheaton Fire Department Rating Could Lower Insurance Rates

fire chief

The Wheaton Fire Department recently learned that the Insurance Services Office raised its grading level for the City of Wheaton’s fire protection capabilities, rating Wheaton among the top 3% of fire departments across the nation.


The ISO’s Public Protection Classification involves a grading process every four years to establish personal and commercial property insurance rates. On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being the highest possible score for a community’s fire department, water system and 9-1-1 dispatch center, Wheaton moved from a grading of 3 to a rating of 2. The improved score will result in cost savings for applicable Wheaton property owners for their property insurance.
