The Spring Volunteer Fire Department is a combination fire department located in Spring, Texas. As a part of the "FM 1960 Area Fire Departments", Spring's apparatus are designated as the "7 Series", where all units start with the number 7.^[1] The fire suppression district in which Spring Volunteer Fire Department serves, has emergency medical services that are provided by Cypress Creek EMS, as the Spring Fire Department has no ambulances. The department does however provide BLS first responder services on priority medical calls such as cardiac and respiratory problems.

History

The Department received its initial charter in May 1953 and started out with seven volunteer members.^[1] The Association was entirely funded by private donations, including equipment donations from other departments. In 1983, Harris County Rural Fire Prevention District No. 1 was formed. This provided the department with a budget based on taxes.^[1]
