How do you choose your fire attack strategy? 🔥 Hit & Move or 🌊 Flow & Move? In this thermal rebound demonstration, firefighters see heat transfer in real time within the flow path—then compare how different suppression techniques truly perform: • Penciling • Short-burst cooling • Straight stream (5-second upside-down U pattern) • Straight stream ceiling Z-pattern (extended application) • Blade pattern ceiling application These side-by-side demonstrations drive home a critical lesson: When oper

Watch the video and try and guess where the base of the fire is located. Then watch as the fire goes Vent limited and note the changes as the front door is opened. #controltheopenings Video Credit- NIST Fire Research https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAGcTZ7Uc1o | SBSK | Facebook

Flow path instruction and hands-on training are safer and more effective when the smoke is out of the way so that you can see the flame movement. Check out this footage of changing conditions as the flow path is adjusted.

The discharge (outlet) flow path will take the path of least resistance and (surprising to many) that may not be the vertical ventilation in some instances. Check out this demonstration on a smoke free alcohol fuel fire training prop to highlight this concept.

Wind-driven fire conditions dramatically increase risk. This footage shows 30 mph winds and their impact on fire behavior. 🌬️ Flow path acceleration 🔥 Rapid fire spread ⚠️ Increased exposure risk 💬 What indicator tells you the incident has become wind-driven to the extent that fire attack is adjusted? 🎥 Credit: unknown #FireEducation #FireBehavior #FlowPath #flashpointequipment | Flashpoint Equipment
