Dry Hydrant Design #57 - Three Bridge Mounts for Greene Twp, PA
By President Mark Davis
August 31, 2023
Last weekend we traveled to Greene Township, Pennsylvania (Erie County) and installed three of our bridge-mount dry fire hydrants. All three of the installations used our saddle-mount design as well as ETT suction heads and stream strainers. The project was sponsored by the Kuhl Hose Fire Department and was funded in part using State grant monies. Each installation produced a flow around 1000 gpm during the initial flow test. Visit the Kuhl Hose Facebook page to view some videos of the systems in use. Next up we are off to Vermont for another bridge-mount installation then on to New Hampshire and Maine to deliver some training seminars.
Engine 683 drafts and flow tests the new installation on Donation Road.
