    pumping lake water

    Yes, if your buying "Fire Hose" try to get NS, NST, or NH (all the same thread pattern, just different names) It's what MOST of the Fire depts in the USA use..

    pumping lake water

    Make sure your strainer has enough holes in it to meet and exceed the pump's intake ability. Somewhere there is a math formula for figuring it all out, but I dont know where. If your choking out your pump by not giving it enough water, it will cavitate, and that is BAD. It is rated for 100...

    JP8 in M1009

    JP-4/8 is great for cleaning gunk out of the fuel system, so be prepared to change your fuel filter after a tankful or 2. I wish I could get some JP-8 for my rigs to clean them out.

    Fire Truck

    Im not lecturing anyone, Im stating the facts. Just about every NFPA reg has a dead firefighter's name behind the reason it came into being. Listen to any seminar that Chief Billy Goldfeder gives, you'll hear the stories. If your governing body doesnt have enough $ for the right equipment...

    Fire Truck

    What's hot in your state is not NFPA approved, and will get fighters killed. Visit the National Fallen FireFighters Monument and read the stories, and get the details about the tanker rollovers and associated deaths. Most are home brew tankers that kill firefighters. Save your pennies and get...

    The AFG grants are throwing money at depts to get rid of these home brew tankers, and your building one. Is it up to NFPA 1901, 2009 edition specs?
