STANDPIPE SYSTEM OPERATIONS: THE STANDPIPE KIT

摘要

With The Many Problems Inherent In operating from a building's standpipe system, a properly equipped standpipe kit will go a long way in making a difficult job less stressful. By planning in advance, you can assemble a standpipe kit that will ensure that the necessary fittings, adapters, wrenches, and other tools are readily available at the standpipe outlet selected for use. In addition to the standpipe kit that facilitates handline operations, a second kit can be assembled for the engine company chauffeur. This second standpipe kit can prove invaluable when a Siamese connection poses difficulty or a standpipe system must be supplied through a lower floor hose outlet.
