Hi to all!

Pumps ops should be year round, not just spring summer and fall.

Thanks Mike . My department has spec"d E-One's for years, mid-mount Hale pumps. The newer 4 door cab units have 1250 GPM pumps . We are the county Emergency service, so we do a lot of Tanker relays for water supply . I've been a pump operator since the mid-80's .I went through the 4 levels of the Tennessee State fire pump operations classes with Mr Lewis Baker . Our state really lost a Great fire asset when he passed away last year .

Happy Thanksgiving! Fire never takes a holiday, remember to recirculate your pump this time of year. It doesn't take long to freeze, but takes long to unfreeze.
