VENTILATION

What are your thoughts on ventilation, both at work and at my vol. station we use positive pressure. we either take out the windows or open the gable ends or vents but in the last 10 years I haven't seen a roof cut, but maybee 3 times out of a couple hundred fires. And no negative pressure fans at all.

"It depends on the situation and what is being removed/ ventilated! positive pressure ventilation needs an adequate escape route for smoke or some light gasses, but a heave gas or mist of tear gas needs the use of positive pressure and exhaust…"

Whats Up? Just keeping in touch with ya. Been a while since I heard from ya. Any way, we have been burning the crap out of some stuff over here at SFD. We have averaged a burn every other shift since Christmas day. I melted my tets on my helmet on Christmas day during a pretty good burn in a two story residential. It wqs so bad on that one, that it blew glass out the front door for about 30 feet and knocked one of our ladder crews helmets off in the stairway going up stairs. It was a mixture of a back draft and roll over, but I can't define it exactly. It was a good fire though.

Its been a lot of fun but very busy. Two shifts ago we ran a residential in the morning followed by 13 alarm activations. That was crazy. Just think about running that many calls and no medicals! Engine 1 crew in the city is bad to the bone! LOL! All right, keep in touch and stay safe.

Excellant video on more will die. This video is short sweet and to the point. It should be a great training video, on a harsh view of reality
