PRI offers a one day course in Pump
Operations Training. Water continues to be
the most practical and commonly used agent
for extinguishing fires. This course deals with
the actions required to effectively understand
hoses, nozzles and appliances, pumps, as
well as the delivery of water in an effective
manner to mitigate incidents. Without
question, fire department pumpers are the
most important apparatus used for controlled
application of water and other extinguishing
agents. No fire department can operate
without pumping apparatus. This course is
one of the easiest methods to attempt to
ensure that all pump operators perform
properly and professionally.
PRI also offers a one day course called
"Pumping with Foam". This course deals with
the actions required to effectively understand
the proper delivery of foam in a manner to
control and mitigate fires using foam products.
