Marinette, WI, USAFounded in 1948, Ansul Fire School is located on a 350-acre (1.4 square kilometer) campus in Marinette, WI, USA. Created to teach people how to use dry chemical fire extinguishers, the school has since evolved and expanded to train more than 50,000 people.
The basic three-day ANSUL Fire School course includes a mixture of classroom and field instruction in proper techniques of fighting 25 different types of flammable liquid and gas fires, simulating actual hazards found in the industry.
Mexico City, MXBuilt in 2013, this 3,300 square foot (300 square meter) education center provides classroom courses covering water-based and special hazard systems and hands-on alarm and detection education.
The facility is equipped with a discharge room to demonstrate the activation of INERGEN, SAPPHIRE, and ANSUL R-102 Restaurant systems as well as spray patterns of various TYCO sprinklers and nozzles.
Port Arthur, TX, USALocated in the heart of America’s oil & gas corridor, TYCO’s newest operating facility strengthens our position as a leader in fixed and portable suppression systems manufacturing. Including advanced equipment testing and maintenance capabilities, WILLIAMS FIRE & HAZARD CONTROL will also provide technical response and equipment application training in the state-of-the-art training facilities.
Site location also maintains a strategic deployment advantage housing WILLIAMS ‘ largest cache of portable fire response equipment dedicated to protect oil & gas clients throughout the gulf south and across the Americas.
Cranston, RI, USAFor over 30 years, this 4-acre (16,100 square meter) site has been TYCO’s technology center for water-based fire protection and mechanical piping products.

“It’s been two months since the SFPE Cascade Chapter hosted your 2 day high piled storage class and I’m still getting compliments about the quality and content of the class. It was described by attendees from private industry and AHJ’s as having a good balance of technical information along with practical case study examples.”
David Smith, President, SFPE, Cascade Chapter
“Fire protection practices can be difficult to master without the opportunity to fully understand the nuts and bolts of how fire protection systems operate. Tyco training addresses this limitation. From trip testing a dry sprinkler system to conducting an annual flow test of a fire pump, our staff can learn through hands-on access to a range of functional fire protection systems. This interactive approach greatly increases our ability to translate knowledge to where it counts - consulting with our customers!”
James Breitkreitz, Executive Technical Director - Risk Engineering, Zurich Services Corporation
“In my 35 years in the fire protection field, I have never attended a training program that provided so much valuable hands-on time. The facility is world class. Having all of the different models and types of sprinkler risers, fire pumps and hydrants, which all function, was a tremendous asset to the learning experience.”
