MAD DOG Brush Fighter Unit. Demonstrated by Capt Rick Shaderline of Station 17 Polk VFR, and employed by Barens, Inc, manufacturer of the MAD DOG unit. Extinguish fires before they become catastrophic! MAD DOG High Pressure Brush Fire Fighting Unit. Fire fighters are too aware of the effects a brush fire can have on a community, if it is not extinguished quickly, Acres of land forest, homes and lives can be lost in a matter of minutes. The MAD DOG BRUSH FIGHTER is a uniques, high pressure unit that can quickly douse a brush fire before it becomes out of control. The use of high pressure allows the fire fighter to dispense up to 10 gallons of water a minute directly at the heart of the fire. Mixing with foam increases efficiency dramatically. When set up on a 3/4 ton or 1 ton 4x4 pickup truck, the MAD DOG is a very fast attack vehicle. One fire fighter can pull the hose from the reel, turn the MAD DOG engine on and pull the trigger of the gun to begin dispensing water/foam. In many situations, the fire will be out or contained before reinforcements arrive. 10 Years of experience proves MAD DOG value on many types of fires. Brush and forest fires, Tire fires, Class "A" and Structural fires, Class "B" fires. MAD DOG is designed to fit in the back of a standard pick up truck with room for supplies, such as extra foam containers, rakes and indian cans. MAD DOG can be easily removed when not in use.

  • i love this set up!!!! about how much does it cost? please send me a message. thank you.

  • @21492005973494 average cost is around $14,000 but we can work with you.

  • I liked the idea of using a pressure washer for fighting field and small brush fires. Seems more efficient to use less water but at a higher velocity

  • @chechnya right on!!

    

  • A booster line seems much more efficient.

  • @Tbone6485 - until you try the unit you do not know what you're missing. Booster lines are heavy and awkward, Maddog unit offers a much lighter line with more effectiveness than a booster line.

  • @chechnya it can get deep in to the soil to combat embers too.....

  • Not sure I would allow a fire to be set at that particular location so close to trees and forest in case anything should go wrong with this unit allowing the fire to breakout however this is 1 very nice quick response unit

  • @firedude201234 They have ones up to 30 that I easily found on Google

    Hydroblaster demucking systems 30 GPM 200 psi

    GS Model Hydroblaster Pressure Washer 10+gpm @ 5k PSI

  • @chechnya Thank you! It is nice to see that there are other people that are knowledgeable about pressure washers.
