How about, "Surgically applied water," instead of "knuckle dragging, fountain statue water squirting?" How much water does one spot need before it stops burning?
Fact!! You would be surprised that the deck gun is the most unused and neglected piece of equipment with fire departments. Fortunately, not for this particular fire department.
Well said, it can provide the initial knock while hose line crews are readying for offensive or defensive operations. It's simple science GPM vs. BTU's.
In this video the "deck gun" has done nothing of note. The title belongs on a video that shows the deck gun knocking a raging fire down rather than flooding a garage as in this video. Before this video even showed the place where the fire was it was already knocked down. So deck gun is inconclusive based upon this video.
Agreed... all this deck gun is doing is keeping our brothers cool on a very hot and humid evening.....lol...A spray pattern like that would knock down a camp fire.....lol
Amazing! Once, i saw a car accident on the 3rd line in Oakville, P251 Came To The Accident, Everyone Was Fine Tho. there was Police, And Paramedics On scene. a go transit supervisor was involved in the accident.

Nice video coverage! I'd imagined looking at what was left of the house the fire department was already being the 8 ball on saving it and went to a quick defensive attack with the master stream from the aerial knocking down the bulk of the fire and used the deck gun to finish the hot spots during overhauling.
The House Will Torn Down Not Safe To Keep Up Tear Down & Rebuild The House If The Owners Have Insurance On The House Get Another House At Another Location
That house will have been build entirely of wood, then the brick added purely for decoration. All that does is make it harder for the FD to get water on what's burning. Most are under the impression that the FD will save a house, but they are so flammable that it's already to late by the time they get there, they are there to try and get anyone out still inside and keep the flames from jumping to the next house (beware of buying semi-detached and townhouses...). If your house catches fire get yourself, the kids and the pets OUT. If there's time consider getting the wife out too.

@@greyman686 Ahh yes! I keep forgetting just how backwards America is, not having a National Fire Service, just individual State/ County Fire Service all operating under there own practices rather than under a State wide single standard.

Bucket trucks smaller, more compact, and very useful, and more effective than those huge ladder trucks. Like in the video that pumper done all the work, the ladder truck just blocking the street waste of resources not needed, but I suppose you have the WOW factor! we have a big ladder truck! I have seen video's of big ladder trucks being sent to car crashes. why? what is there purpose? that is backwards thinking, but there again this is America.

More departments need to use their deck guns more on larger infernos, instead of "playing" with the 1.75 lines. The problem is most volleys are to out of shape to climb on top of the engine to get to the gun.
Your comment started out good, then it turned into the stupidest thing I've read all year. Deck guns not used because vollies can't climb up to them? GTFOH! Please telle you were drunk when you wrote this.
the smoke from a house fire is full of toxins and carcinogens from all the synthetic materials used today. Two of those toxins are carbon monoxide and hydrogen cyanide.
Ontario Building Code was amended some time ago to require a 220 Volt outlet in a garage to accommodate electric vehicle charging. It did not, however, mandate improvements in garage fire resistance to protect the home from electric vehicle charging.
As a retired fire chief with 50+ plus years of service one comment, (big fire = big water) !

How do you best a deck gun!!! Maybe with a smooth bore tips for a bit better reach and volume.

For your safety, you have to move. As two paramedics and some boob stay in same place. Good grief. Lol.

So many fires were the deck gun could save the day and property loss.
Even though the fire was abt dead. I like the way u caught neighborhood action and took interesting moveing around
Water on the fire is the basic rule of firefighting.

This Oakville FD must be a pretty good size agency; I don’t see any mutual aid. Must be a career agency because of the significant turnout.
9 stations. Not the biggest out there and not the smallest.
Those guys are my brothers since I have been a volunteer firefighter
I love it big fire with the use of BIG water

Great job guys putting out the fire ❤️💙❤️💙
Splendid work by the emergency responders!
Fairly typical house fire situation actually
How many kilometers is this location north of the US border?
Oakville is on the Northern Shore of Lake Ontario, about 75 miles northwest of Buffalo, NY
That’s the way you do it

Because most departments have a specific amount of apparatus they send to a fire, engines, ladders etc.

Haha yes exactly!
Some Cops are complete tyrants and always have to find reasons to order people around.
And it always amazes me that no matter what they do, there's always the ones to knock them.
People need to start covering fires with drones. No cops if you lift off from blocks away. 😁 th-cam.com/video/YDMIRsoLr9I/w-d-xo.html
The house is also a thing from the past since will be torn down.
Yep. Despite the honking and hollering about the deck gun saving the day, it didn't save anything.

My uncle could've become a cop but became a firefighter because "when was the last time anyone hated a fireman?"
The deck gun did nothing to stop this fire, the lack of burnable material stopped it. All that’s left is brick.
