Post by: 2468 on November 16, 2010, 08:53:34 PM
Did anyone see the old NSWFS truck on North East road tonight doing what i think was a flow test on the booster system??

Does anyone know who has that old truck?? The truck looked like an old musseum piece lol.

Probly more likely to be the brigade just testing hydrants are actually functional, more so than actual flow tests.

we had to do a flow test for the new hydrants that came online with the extension of the shopping centre,  only had to make sure they would pump 800kpa or something like that
