Our goal at LeGear Engineering F.D. Consulting is to provide the knowledge necessary to initiate in-house change for issues specific to your agency, including but not limited to; water supply infrastructure, engine apparatus design, hose and nozzle packages, hose bed layout/configuration and associated standard operating policies (SOP/SOGs).
Are you ready to save your department time and improve your efficiency on the fire ground? The concept of the Fire Stream Triangle Is that your agency needs all three sides to develop Gold Standard Fire Streams from Master Streams to Handline Streams. A hose with low kink, low nozzle whip, appropriate weight, proper friction loss vs. water velocity for flow.

The 1 3/16-inch tip is about attaining the largest possible flow at 50psi nozzle pressure while maintaining the true "handline" characteristics of deployability while flowing and advancing through a structure.
It is about increasing the useable flow of the ADULTS handline by producing a vastly overwhelming "critical flow" stream to meet modern fuel load challenges such as high heat release rate "fire loads" encountered by the fire service today in commercial / large body fires.The two common smooth bore tip sizes used on 2-inch attack handlines are 11/8-inch and 1-inch.

We will provide a customized quote and scope of services for you to review, revise and approve. We will engage with the Local utility district to gain an understanding of the water delivery infrastructure - this drives the rest of our process. We also conduct extensive phone and on-site interviews of key personnel, request tours of agency facilities and of infrastructure within your area.
