AS YOU CAN SEE NO DRY HYDRANT FOR ME
THURSDAY WE HAD A DAY TIME DRILL AT
WINDHAM CENTER'S POND AT THEIR FIRE HOUSE.
ENGINE 102 WAS IN THE WATER HOLE WITH DUAL 6" SUCTION,
ONE OFF THE FRONT AND ONE OFF THE SIDE.
THE PUMP ON THE ENGINE IS A 1500 GALLON PER MIN PUMP.
WE RAN ONE 3/4" BOOSTER LINE AND ONE 5" LINE TO A WATER THIEF THAT FED TWO 2 1/2" LINES, ONE TO A DECK GUN AND ONE TO A FOG NOZZLE. THERE WERE TWO MORE 2 1/2" FOGS OFF THE TRUCKS PUMP PANEL, ALL PUMPING AT 110-115 PSI.
WE HAD TO HAVE BEEN PUMPING SOMETHING LIKE 17 OR 1800 GALLONS A MINUTE
SOME OF THE MEMBERS FROM THE THREE WINDHAM DEPARTMENTS.
MILES JR IS RUNNING THE MANIFOLD FOR THE TWO 2 1/2 LINES OFF THE 5" LINE COMING OFF THE BACK OF THE ENGINE.
