Does the stream have a good footprint at impact?
All nozzles have a certain amount of “rain-out”. The rate of flow and nozzle pressure both have a great effect on both “rain-out” and footprint. You will notice an improved footprint with low-pressure nozzles. Independent visual tests have rated the Vindicator footprint superior. We challenge you to be the judge!8. We ll run out of water using big gallonage nozzles! Top Imagine a large trash can on fire. You have two full buckets of water. One bucket has a lid with a small hole in it and the other bucket has an open top. You get to pick one of the buckets for your extinguishment effort. Which bucket would you choose?If you chose the open top bucket you re correct! The very first section in this book, which references the fire curve and the preceding section have valuable information about the conservation concept. The rate of application is most critical in situations where the quantity of water is limited. With limited water you re only going to get one chance to knock the fire down o
