Firefighting snorkel unit tested by Ottawa DPS
Ottawa Department of Public Safety tested its snorkel unit at the West Second Street practice tower. The 75 foot arm improves reach for fighting fires and rescuing people, with the overhauled electrical and hydraulic systems making it faster and quieter. The unit, back in service after 11 months, aids operations at businesses, schools, nursing homes, and hospitals, and can also serve as a high perch command post.
