Video was shot at the Wylie Texas Fire Rescue Training Field in November 2009
Wylie Fire Rescue was completing training on the implementation of Novacool into 100% of their operations. All Wylie apparatus are now equipped with Novacool UEF.

The Revolutionary attraction of the Novacool UEF fire extinguishment products is their patented ability to dramatically and quickly lower fire site temperature. Firefighters consistently report a cooling shield which precedes them when fires are fought with Novacool UEF products. Conventional foam products do not cool beyond the normal effect of the water they contain. In addition, fire departments using our products, report 70% faster extinguishment as compared to any Class A or B agent and also they are reporting, on average, about 70% to 90% lower water usage as compared to plain water.
Brand name: Novacool UEF (Universal Extinguishing Foam).
Application Ratio: 0.4% standard
Fire Class Application: Class A, Class B, Class D, pressurized and 3-D fires.
Approvals: Manufactured under NFPA 18, UL tested and listed.

You could extinguish that quicker using less agent if the application was better! Lob the foam onto the fire using less pump pressure!! I have been an ARFF Firefighter for 22years and we have had better success with that method even when using AFFF at 6%.
