Fire departments in the United States are adopting Class A and Compressed Air Foam Systems as the new fire suppression standard for structural fire response. Departments are investing in Compressed Air Foam technology to obtain a return in the areas of increased firefighter safety, increased capability of initial fire attack resources (personnel, water supply and equipment), and reduced property damage.

The CAFS Institute has been created for you, the Compressed Air Foam end-user. Whether you are a recruit level firefighter or serve up to, and including, the level of fire chief, our goal is to help you effectively understand and use foam and CAFS technology.
