Cutting a plug/hydrant isn&#39;t necessarily a difficult task on the fire ground... when you know the key steps to take, potential issues that can arise, and how to mitigate those issues.One area that I&#39;ve somewhat deviated from our &#39;traditional practice&#39; here in Dallas is on what the signal (or call) should be to start laying in our 5&#34; supply hose. Once we step off the apparatus and wrap the hydrant, do we use hand signals? Do we radio to the driver to start laying in? My preference is a little different, but something I think is worth your consideration and maybe a conversation at your kitchen table.As always, you can view all our content (video, audio, written) over a The Roll Steady Network - which can be accessed either by going to www.therollsteady.com or you can download the Mighty Networks app from your app store and search for &#34;Roll Steady&#34; to find our community. <h2>***MARCH 2022 GIVEAWAY***</h2>This month, Iron Fox Tool Co is giving away what we consider to be THE BEST axe a firefighter could carry - The 8lb Breach Axe.

Urban Pump Series (Audio Version) - Foundation of Dual Pumping

Recently I&#39;ve taught a couple hydraulics classes where I think some confusion has crept up because I wasn&#39;t as clear as I could have been that our water supply tactics exist on a spectrum. This episode attempts to clear this up by emphasizing the need to match our water supply decisions to the fire we have in front of us (or better yet, what will be in front of us 5-10 minutes after we set the parking break).As always, you can view all our content (video, audio, written) over a The Roll Steady Network - which can be accessed either by going to www.therollsteady.com or you can download the Mighty Networks app from your app store and search for &#34;Roll Steady&#34; to find our community. <h2>***MARCH 2022 GIVEAWAY***</h2>This month, Iron Fox Tool Co is giving away what we consider to be THE BEST axe a firefighter could carry - The 8lb Breach Axe.

Providing a bit of context to some comments in the January Urban Pump Series where I said that, &#34;the volume capacity of 3&#34; hose dictates some of my fire ground tactics.&#34;It’s important to understand that this is rarely applied and only a viable option in certain circumstances.In our context, we usually have a permanent water supply secured by the time a handline would be making entry.The point is to know your equipment and what it’s limits are. Confidence is built on competence.

Transitional Attack Off Tank Water???

Part of January&#39;s (2022) Urban Pump Series Episode, we&#39;re addressing a question that&#39;s come up on the limits of the side (2.5&#34;) discharges on our hydrants and whether it even makes sense to use our increaser to run dual 5&#34; supply lines for big fires.You can find the data and show notes at TheRollSteady,com

Does The 2.5" discharge on your hydrant limit the volume you can flow and make using a 5" hose irrelevant (via 3" - 5" increaser)?
