No "tank recirculating" after "tank to pump"?

At the 0:10 second mark, the rig pulled out of station. To the left of the screen, you’ll see 5 lights stacked on top of each other: blue, yellow, yellow, yellow, and red. Do these lights signify anything? I’ve noticed some other municipalities have a similar set up on their rigs and I’ve seen the lights turn green. I wonder what these lights mean. Anyone have information for me?

The lights are an indicator of the water level in the truck's onboard tank. Each individual light shuts off as the water level is reduced. Once you see only the red lights illuminated, the tank is empty or nearly empty.

It's to measure how much water you have in the tank, allows not only the engineer to see, but command vehicles and anybody else that may need to know.

They signify the water level

Do you keep your "Tank to Pump" valve open after switching from internal tank to "Direct pumping" using your hydrant line?

Yes

I've always been taught to close tank to pump once you get a feed. This will allow you to know quickly if your feed fails and you'll still have a full tank to send. If the tank to pump is left open and you lose your feed, the pump will take from the tank and you might not know you lost your feed until your tank is empty.

Running off tank while supplied keeps constant pressure. If you loose supply your interior crew just lost water. You keep an eye on your tank levels.

Easy to say keep an eye on the tank, but when you've got the deck gun flowing and two lines out, you'll blow through the tank in 30 seconds. Keeping the tank to pump closed will give you an instant notification that you lost your supply. Interior crew will lose water for a couple seconds. Open tank to pump to give your interior crews a couple minutes while you fix an issue or get them out.

@@JParkin10 you do you but if that's how you fight fire I would suggest you keep doing it from the front yard
