The Columbus Division of Fire (CFD) provides fire protection and emergency medical services to Columbus, Ohio.

The department operates 35 stations; the newest station opened March 2020.[3] The stations are divided into seven battalions.[4] The Columbus Division of Fire oversees 35 engine companies, 16 ladder companies, 5 rescue companies, and 40 EMS transport vehicles as well as several special units and reserve apparatus. It is staffed by a minimum of 292 personnel during daytime hours (first 12 hours) and 331 during nighttime hours (second 12 hours).[5] The department also oversees 39 medic companies.[4] There are 1,592 uniformed and 70 civilian professionals serving the citizens of Columbus, Ohio.[6]

The department is accredited by the Committee on Fire Accreditation International, granted in 2007. At the time, it was the second-largest fire department with the accreditation.[7]

The Division of Fire was created in 1822; at that time it was officially named the Columbus Fire Department.[8]
