Trivia
Filmed in Chicago. Firehouse 51 is actually Station 18, which is located at 1360 S. Blue Island Ave in Chicago. "Molly's Bar," owned by characters Herrmann, Dawson, and Otis, is filmed in the real Chicago bar "Lottie's" in Bucktown.

Goofs
Most departments, Chicago FD included, do not allow firefighters on duty to grow out facial hair on the cheeks or on the lower lip or chin as Lt. Severide often does. It interferes with achieving a tight seal on the SCBA (air) mask as the seal gasket on the rests against those parts of the face. Firefighters with too much facial hair will also fail the mask fit test for the same reason.
Mustaches (as often seen on Chief Boden, Mouch, Otis and some others) are not technically an issue, but some departments may have internal regulations that restrict them.

A good entertaining show, I like the characters in it, it's not slow and just easy watching. However, why does Dawson get so much airtime? I hate the character, I can't connect to her and she just seems to be in places or meetings for the sake of it, she should just be a side character, give Mouch and Herrman more airtime as they are actually interesting characters that seem realistic and likeable.
