The Tarentum Seagrave was refurbed in 1991 by Kenco with a 4-door cab enclosure, new black over red paint scheme, and new warning lights. This engine is still in service at Summit Hose, Tarentum Station No. 3 in the west end of the Borough of Tarentum. Kenco refurbed Eureka Hose Engine 121 with a 4-door cab enclosure, automatic transmission, new booster tank and hose body in 1990, also refurbed was Tarentum, Highland Hose aerial ladder in 1991, then the Summit engine, all done by Kenco.
