Most fire services in Europe and Australia use the high pressure reel on car fires, no point bowling out 2 lengths of 38mm if it can be knocked down with the reels. I agree on the BA point though, with the risk of cancer being as high as it is in firefighters, i'd rather wear BA to a nothing job, then not wear it at a going job.

@ikarlhd1

Unsure. In NI not all tenders have foam capability, they would only have it from a fire extinguisher or an actual foam tender. Sometimes its not 100% needed, other times for large scale fueling fires (such as at airports) it is
@BobbyMulqueen
9 жыл бұрын
If there was a Petrol or Oil leak then we'd use foam, as water would just spread the fuel everywhere. Most of what is burning here is just material from the car (paint, rubber, plastic and fabrics.) In this case using only water would be adequate. Foam takes a little delay in setting up, and then the environmental agency has to be notified. Plus water is free, whereas foam concentrate costs money. It's much easier and less time consuming to douse it with water rather than mess about with foam; Although in some cases, it's necessary.
@hvymtal8566

Bobby Mulqueen In that case you could use a CO2 extinguisher in combination with the line, saves the trouble and cheaper than foam since CO2 extinguishers are everywhere.
@BobbyMulqueen
9 жыл бұрын
I suppose you could, but extinguishers aren't designed for fighting fires in that sense. It's more of a means of protection, whilst you escape a fire, or in the very early stages of preventing a fire. If there is nobody in the car, and you can use water from a safe distance, then that's the sensible option. You don't know what's inside the car, it could have cylinders in the boot, or other hazards. Why risk getting up close with an extinguisher when it's more effective and safer to wash it down the road? It also saves you having to restock extinguishers. If you're out on a job and you use unnessessary equipment, then you get a second shout where you need that specific gear, then you're no good to anybody. It's down to the assessment you make at the scene. To me, having one of your crew risk his life over a car that's already lost is bad leadership.

Sorry no excuse not wearing BA, only takes a minuet to get it on and under air, what if the building had become involved and someone was trapped. Not good place to park the appliance either, what if a back tyre exploded and threw petrol into the appliance, not much use if it's on fire. Pre planning required on the OIC's part.
