Frequently Asked Questions About Fire Hose
Fire departments commonly use 1.5" to 1.75" attack hose for structural firefighting and larger diameter hose, such as 4" or 5", for water supply operations. The right hose size depends on flow requirements, apparatus setup, and operational needs.
Structural firefighting commonly uses double-jacket or rubber-lined attack hose designed for durability, flexibility, and high-pressure performance. These hoses are built to withstand tough fireground conditions while remaining easy to maneuver during interior firefighting operations. Rubber-lined hose provides added abrasion resistance and long service life, while double-jacket hose offers flexibility and dependable water flow.
Attack hose is a smaller diameter hose used to deliver water directly from the apparatus to firefightin nozzles during suppression operations. Supply hose is a larger diameter hose designed to move high volumes of water from hydrants or relay sources to fire apparatus. Both play critical roles in maintaining effective water delivery on the fireground.
Forestry hose is lightweight, compact hose designed for wildland and brush fire operations.
