If you look at ISO requirements for water supply points, they require that a water supply point that is not connected to a main should be capable of providing a fire flow of 250 gpm for a minimum of 2 hours (120 minutes). In other words, a rated wat…

There are probably as many different definitions of "brotherhood" or "sisterhood" in the fire service as there are members in the fire service. You would probably find a similar variety if we were to define "family" or "community"! So each of…

I've worked around folding tanks (large square frames) and self-supporting tanks (round, no frame) for 30 years. Folding tanks can be linked together easily, while self-supporting tanks are difficult to link together. There are several ways to link…
A place to discuss rural water operations and the impact they have on firefighting operations.
Nick:
Rural fire departments have to think about water supply on every call. In most cases, the community's water supply system will probably consist of more than one of the options you mention above. In fact, my experience indicates that a combina…
I utilized the Carmody Combustible Hazards kit during the early 1990s teaching industrial fire brigade members. It is an amazing tool for live demonstrations of fire chemistry under controlled circumstances. While most of the equipment could be purc…
