Course Description

This course will address pre-connected and made-up hose lines. Pre-connected lines, on occasion, are not long enough to reach the fire. It will address advancing hose lines across parking lots, through courtyards, and up stairways. It will show the importance of a correct estimation the first time, therefore eliminating the necessity of extending lines.
