Here he should have added a second or half length. And it's not true that he's a great engineer and driver fire engine operator, because he walks everywhere and does other things. On this call, he does it because they are short-staffed, what is the sad reality for many fire departments with personnel not in fire stations 24/7. Yes in the circumstances, he does an excellent job. He works quickly and returns quickly to his engine. But in fact, an engine driver, should remain at his pump panel at all times, if it's in operation.
@@gillesrenaud6926Buddy you don’t have any idea what you’re talking about. The notion that a good engineer is one that sits at his pump and does nothing is a sad and terrible one there wasn’t a need for another 50-100 foot section yeah there was a bend at the hydrant but as long as the pressures good to the truck it doesn’t matter. This truck is by most peoples standards fully staffed with 4 people.

@Apollo55_ arsonists will sabatoge fire hydrants before lighting fires and if you dont flush it out before connecting the hose itll end up in the intake
@@Shadow-rw3bj Very interesting i didnt expect that arsonist thought so far ahead lmao arson always seemed like a crime of passion rather than a well thought out premeditated crime.
Was first due on a single family dwelling. No hydrant access. Narrow driveway with very little room and no way to get trucks past each other. We were getting ready to make entry when our engineer stopped us. The engine would not go into pump. He messed around for 30 sec then went to plan B. He pulled a 25 foot section of 5in and attached it to the tanker then started pumping with the tanker using the engine basically like a giant manifold. We lost maybe 2 min instead of ten if we had to move the engine and restretch lines. This then became SOP for all fires without hydrant access. We called it piggybacking. Engine plus tanker was 3500 gallons and gave us time to set up drop tanks and get a tanker shuttle going.
I dont comment on videos but this one was impressive everyone calm and collective and moving with purpose exactly how fire grounds should run as well as an engineer that knows his job nicely done brother
I am a retired driver engineer once they pull that line and you're working off of tank water the clock is ticking get the supply line you wind up being a lifeline for them
As an Engineer, I completely agree with you. The secured water source is the Engineer's priority! This call depends on that water source. I will prepare the tools that will be needed for the firefighters for this call but my main priority is to get that water and keep watch of that pump panel. If the IC calls on the Engineer for anything, for example a deck gun or for the mayday horn, I will be right there at my engine ready to give it. My IC, captain and all my firefighters will always know that their Engineer is at that engine manning their fire pump. Even being short staffed, everyone of our firefighters is doing their job that they've trained for, just like the Engineer. Depending on the amount of water that engine is carrying, you're losing time, that's why the Engineer is tested on their ability to secure that water source right when the pump is activated. Me, personally, I had 2 minutes to secure my water source while pumping water to my crosslays before I ran out of water in my 1000 gallon tank. This was my priority!
This was awesome to watch. Everyone seemed to know exactly where to go what to do and worked together really well. Props to the engineer as well for doing so much to help out his team! Model work guys! Side note: that engine of yours looks beautiful, and it's organized so well.
This driver reminds me of my driver from when I was running a regular shift! Such a solid driver! Also I am loving that the rescue officer/chief (making an assumption based on the helmet) is rocking the old school 3/4 rubber boots and blue jeans!
Kudos to the driver/pump,operator. Got one line charged off booster tank, ran his own supply line, got it connected and flowing, got 2nd handling charged, set both ladders, and then made sure his guys were getting a good nozzle flow. Excellent work!!
I remember when Andy Batch was the chief back in the 1960's. Looks like the department is still doing well at fighting fires. Watching from my ocean condo in Florida.
I'm all for switching to supply but I see a few things. - The indicator on the cab was full (or nearly) green the entire time so must not have been using much water. Truck has CAFS as the uploader has pointed out and it carries 750 gallons of water. In Part 2 they start feeding a ladder and go down 1/4 before switching to the hydrant. - 09:55 Can see the overflow under the truck after the valve was cracked. - You do get a bit more control of the pressures by not relying on the supply. Especially if other hydrants nearby are getting used. Again, I'd rather switch and save some wear and tear on the vehicle. Plus the obvious "hydrant fails" scenario and every bit of tank water helps.
@@idahomike The reason for this is when using CAFS {compressed air foam system} you operate at a lower pressure. typically, running off of the hydrant will over pressurize the system, so in order to deal with that, tank water is used. Some trucks are designed with that in mind and have a direct tank fill valve which will bypass the pump, and keep the tank topped off.
Incident Priorities: Life Safety they thought someone was trapped so they went for the rescue first. Incident Stabilization: Stretching at the same time as rescue and the line crew got their own water. Excellent Job! One question why doesn't the officer have or wear an SCBA?
Is it the mic on your camera or does your engine just sound hi-pitched? Also, nice work! I love seeing an engineer that's getting it done! Ive had a lot of lazy drivers in my day.
I noticed that too. When you switch to pump your tank you're supposed to open up the TANK TO PUMP all the way until you secure a water source then you can close it. It looked like he was opening and closing it.
I love the activity of the engineer. Just a question I have. Is gating down your intake a standard at your department. I have always been taught and always teach to never gate your intake down just gate your discharges.
First time seeing an Fire Engineer pushing buttons, fueling water from the water hydrant and turning knobs etc. to his fire truck, usually the other firemen does that since he already did the driving to the fire scene.
What’s the point of putting the attachment on the side of the hydrant, I have never understood that. Couldn’t u just leave the cap on? Not trying to critique I’m just a curious first year FF
I see a lot of comments of difference of opinion on the operator, its good to see an engineer moving and placing ladders but not before a adequate water supply. This is an apartment complex and water is crucial in this scenario, also there were no additional units on scene for a while so imagine if you have issues at the pump and you see your operator placing a ladder. Yes it seems lazy having a guy only at the pump be thats his job. Making sure pressures are good establishing a continues water supply protecting the guys inside. Also running on scene is a no. If he gets hurt then what? Trust your training not internet firefighters who never operated as an engineer.
Once you have hydrant tapped and flowing, whay not shut the tank to pump handle? I only say this as you want to have that tank as a back up in case hydrant goes haywire.
It’s gotta be just the sound quality but that pump sounds like it’s screeeaminggggg for help lol. Nice work, I’ll take a few of these little things the operator did into work with me tomorrow
Helluva job by the engineer and the crew, yall on top of your shit. genuine question do yall use the foam for everything or was it just in this case? i personally haven’t seen it used in situation before.
Thank you and yes we pump foam on every fire. Our engine has CAFS and has a build in air compressor so it makes handling any size line much easier. There are tons of benefits to CAFS. The only downside is the cost to install it on an engine
It's a pressure relief valve, which prevents pressure spikes from hydrant/second engine or tanker pressures from reaching the landlines used by firefighters
@@gp3918 The pump has an auto governor on it, when he opened the hydrant intake the engine slowed down, The old trucks you had to run the throttle with one hand while opening supply with the other to keep from knocking the nozzle man off his feet.
Not with the amount of water they are using, two- 1.75 lines use about 400 gpm, out of the 2000 gpm that supply line is capable of. If the engine was using everything it can then it can be an issue. Engineer has to be in good shape to be able to do the tasks required of him when short staffed. First in engines are always short staffed.
Sorry brother, that is one sloppy supply line. Gotta call it like you see it, no hydrant wrap, no cribbing, either park closer next time or you’re stuck using another stick.
@@vicstanfieldshire7754 not true. We have a 10 foot and a 25 foot extension ldh that can be used if longer distance was needed. This was the correct distance.

Question: What is the engineer adjusting with the handwheel on the inlet and why (if not self explanatory)?
It's a pressure relief valve, which prevents pressure spikes from hydrant/second engine or tanker pressures from reaching the landlines used by firefighters
What was going on with the truck bogging down when you open the water tap? Does the truck have an onboard tank that it pressurizes or something?
The truck is not bogging down, that is the truck throttling down due to the increase of pressure coming in from the hydrant.

Why do you add the Y at the hydrant?
why arent we going on straight hydrant water instead of leaving the tank to pump open the whole time? is it because of the foam/cafs usage?

Spartan. That sound is the air compressor since it’s a CAFS engine. Completely normal sound.
@@RCFD-C-Shift Oh okay that makes sense.
What is this device 4:12 used for?
That allows for 2 other engines to refill at the same time
@@TrentonSkinner-tc6xk Thank you.
Why are we pumping in RPM?
@@spencersaul2086 it was not pumped in RPM
@ ah ok. Our controllers only show engine RPMs when it’s being pumped in RPM mode.
What helmet cam is this
GoPro
Why does that pump/truck sound like there’s something wrong with it?
@@gunney74 it’s a CAFS engine. It’s normal. The sound you’re hearing is the onboard air compressor.
