CapyCool® · Emergency services

For those who face the heat.

Portable cooling built for tough people and long days. From the fire truck cab to the station, training ground and crew rest area, one fan can go a long way.

We've had the honour of working with personnel and teams from the NSW Rural Fire Service, Fire and Rescue NSW, CFA and other emergency services across Australia.

Better airflow inside the fire truck.

Anyone who's spent time in a busy appliance knows that the back of the cab can get hot and stuffy. Even with air conditioning, airflow doesn't always reach every seat.

Mount it. Aim it. Take it with you.

Our portable fans can help move air towards passengers in suitable vehicle cabins, without installing a permanent fan system. Use a compatible holder with our upgraded 2026 magnet or a clamp, depending on the mounting surface.

And when the crew leaves the vehicle, the same fan can be moved to the station, an approved rest area or another suitable location.

  • Targeted airflow where the cabin vents fall short
  • Rechargeable and portable, with no fixed wiring
  • Upgraded larger magnetic mounting option
  • Clamp option for suitable non-magnetic surfaces
  • Easy to reposition between approved locations

Don't forget the crew in the back.

Rear seats can be the last place to feel the vehicle's air conditioning. Positioned appropriately, a personal fan can add directed airflow without relying entirely on the dash vents.

The example here shows how multiple mounted fans can be positioned to send air further into a vehicle's passenger area.

The real benefit is versatility: one setup for the journey, another for when the vehicle is parked.

02 / Beyond the cab

One fan. Plenty of ways to use it.

Station work, training, logistics and those well-earned rest breaks all bring different cooling challenges. CapyCool gives your team options.

01

Station & appliance bays

Direct some airflow where you're sorting equipment, checking trucks or getting ready for the next callout.

02

Crew rest areas

Set up a portable fan at an approved rest or rehabilitation location for a little more comfort between tasks.

03

Training days

Take targeted airflow to suitable outdoor exercises, briefing spaces and training grounds.

04

Staging & base camp

Lightweight, rechargeable airflow for suitable temporary workspaces, without needing a nearby power point.

05

Maintenance benches

Use a compatible clamp or magnet to position a fan beside a bench or equipment servicing area.

06

Community events

From open days to demonstrations and long afternoons outside, keep personal airflow close at hand.

03 / Choose your mount

The right airflow, in the right place.

A fan is only as useful as where you can put it. That's why our mounting options matter as much as the fans themselves.
