Those Knox fdc caps are such a grift. They market them so well as "high security" and have got them written into so many city codes, including Fort Worth, that they can charge $600 (!!!) a pair. The wrenches are as easy to get as elevator keys lmao, I have one.

I’m wondering why you need 3 engines to supply. Can’t they just Hooke the hydrant straight to truck 2 instead?? And then used truck 3 to feed another stand pipe if there is 2 or just to run a line if that makes sense for the layout? Or is there a reason you want to do it this way? Besides being able to and less stress on equipment type stuff?

In FWFD we use 1st E as Fire Attack, 2nd E ties to standpipe to feed Fire Attack, 3rd E ties to water supply and feeds 2nd E. Running two engines in a series allows for higher pressure pumping to elevations above 20th floor.

@fortworthfiredepartmenttra3428 doesn't your city mandate a fire pump every 10 floors?
