The improved ratings come after a routine inspection was conducted in February, by officials with the Department of Insurance Office of State Fire Marshal.
New Hanover County Fire Rescue has received an improved fire response rating, which county officials say could lead to lower fire insurance rates for residents starting in August.
New Hanover County s southern and northern fire districts both received a Class 2 rating from North Carolina Insurance Commissioner and State Fire Marshal Mike Causey. Since 2012, both districts had been rated as Class 4.
The NCRRS rating system ranges from 1 (highest) to 10 (not recognized as a certified fire department by the state). Higher ratings suggest a department is overall better equipped to respond to fires in its district, and can also significantly lower homeowners insurance rates in that fire district.
