New Departure Engine Demonstration Sparks Fire Rescue Debate
In Hamida the Provincial Fire Commissioner and town officials witnessed a contrast between a small ten gauge hand pump from the New Departure Fire Extinguishing Engine and a large eighty gallon gas powered unit. The little device extinguished a constructed box fire in seven seconds while the big engine took twice as long. Local firms presented the demonstration to argue fires start small and rapid response matters, noting the first crucial minutes outperform heavier equipment.
