Brother, You are barking up the wrong tree using 1 3/4" hose on a standpipe. Also, we train our guys to NEVER connect up in the stairway, but to set up in the hallway, and allow the control FF to set up the Standpipe outlet.
@russ10x I appreciate you watching my video but, 1 3/4 is a standard size hose line for stairway ops. There is no need to use a larger diameter hose for interior fire attack as it is unsafe and difficult to advance. It is common practice to hook up at the standpipe located between floors in case of extension to upper floors. What department do you work for?
@russ10x: my jurisdiction is made of high rises filled with small individual rooms, that are sprinklered. The 1.75 line is more than adequate for these occupancies. We have a limited number of high rises that would need the 2.5, and for that we also have 2.5 high rise bundles.
great system! We use two 100ft bundles with smooth bore nozzels. If we need 200ft of line all we do is take the tip of one of the nozzels and it becomes a gate.
Good Video... A few questions? If needed how would you add an additional 50 or 100 feet to this for longer stretch if needed? Number 2 I understand this is for demo only but don't you think it should be a "train the way you fight"? You NEVER hook up to a standpipe connection on the floor above a fire! Not to mention NFPA for the design of standpipe systems recomends 2 1/2" hose for standpipe ops that what they systems are designed around not 1 3/4" and not FOG nozzles!
I found that you can reduce the need to work out the kinks if you have the noozle bail cracked open when you call for water. The kinks are ther cause the air can be compressed. I have left the bundle "folded" with the bail open. Book pressure opens the coils all the up.
the bleeding of the air is worthless unless you flow the line to ensure proper pressure with good flow characteristics. plus are standpipes designed for 1.75" hose?
the answer is NO. They are designed for 2.5" with flow of 250 gpm
Well this is a very common load that eveybody tries to put thier name on. Ive heard it called the High Rise Pack, the Gazner Roll. You call it what you want but, its pretty safe calling it the bundles.
Hello, thanks for watching. I have deployed this bundle in heavy fire conditions and if you are a fireman you know that there is never a perfect scenario but, it did work rather well. This video was solely intended to show rookies how to deploy it and load it. Thanks.
Another excellent example where we no longer need to send fire fighters in as a Truck Company without the protection of a fully charged nozzle. These laws of physics can apply to literally every length of hose deployed by an Engine Company including large exposure lines from within ten (10') ft of the rear of a fire engine. 3w's hftfire dot com

Well #1. This standpipe was located between floors and #2. It is not our policy to go interior with a 2 1/2 hoseline.

I'm pretty sure this is called a Cleveland Load. It is very effective and can be utilized quickly.
