Full Description
Operating as the supply pumper is one of the most important tasks on any fire ground. The supply engine must rapidly establish an initial source of water for the attack engine, but also be prepared to expand its system to meet future flow demands. This is regardless of whether the water source is a fire hydrant or a static body of water. It is the supply pump operator’s responsibility to be prepared to maximize any water source from which they are assigned to operate from. This course is designed to show students how to maximize their water availability while operating from a draft and pressurized water sources. By the conclusion of this course, students will be able to implement these techniques to ensure that they are able to meet the flow demands of their next large-scale fire incident.
