[@skiqsr]

Do you have any rust in those fire hydrant locations

[@ateeqmalik3364]

The more simple procedure the better will b the result

[@ateeqmalik3364]

There must b the simplest procedure to restore the water from the positive source fire water hydrant

[@brotherjayblaze3947]

QUESTION......Why did he open inlet bleeder valve first before he changed hydrant then he close bleeder valve ?

[@ROYYYBERT]

There will be air in the line initially that can cause the pump to lose the prime in turn causing your fighters to lose water completely. The open bleeder will pass that air allowing for steady flow of water.

What state is this

[@mikegaskin5542]

California

[@wesbann]

Closing a hydrant like that will create water hammer, which will result in the water line potentially rupturing. This happens so often, if a firefighter had to repair the line he would think twice before slamming the hydrant closed.

[@kobewheaton8601]

Closing a hydrant? They’re made so you can turn them closed as fast as you can and it doesn’t create issues. Same with a gate valve hooked into the hydrant
