Educational Rack Hose Video Released on YouTube, SlideShare
CLEVELAND, Ohio – Supporting the association’s mission to saves lives and protect property through fire safety education, the Fire Equipment Manufacturers’ Association today released an educational video on the features and benefits of standpipe rack hoses. This educational video provides an overview of standpipe rack hose systems and highlights the importance of these systems as part of balanced fire protection plan for buildings.
“Incorporating a balanced fire protection design in commercial buildings helps to minimize safety risks by providing multiple channels for fire notification and protection,” says Duane Leonhardt, fire hose and interior equipment division chair. “Building owners, managers and occupants play key roles in designing and executing fire protection plans, so we produced this video specifically with them in mind.”
Standpipe rack hose systems are just one element of a complete balanced protection plan; other elements may include portable fire extinguishers, automated suppression systems, smoke detectors and fire alarms.
In addition to providing a summary of the components and operation of standpipe rack hose systems, the video also reviews the unique features of these systems, including:
- Quick suppression of fires
- 1-person operation
- Minimal water damage
- Pathway clearing for occupant rescue
- Occupant protection during rescue
