Fight FIRE! …not the HOSE! – Technology to Take the HEAT!™

An inquiry into making a difference for others: To evaluate hose deployment methodologies to ensure crews can protect themselves with their attack lines; within feet of their apparatus; within seconds; with NO KINKS EVER! To teach any driver/operator how to calculate TOTAL (Wildland Fire) Engine Pressure to “produce an effective fire stream” “at the rated capacity of the nozzle” and consider how a pool owner can exponentially increase SAFETY.

About Richard W. Hoffmann, Sr.

Mr. Hoffmann is a medically retired Correctional Fire Captain, twice patented inventor and Fire Command, Investigation, Prevention, and Hazardous Materials Specialist Instructor.

In 2006, Texas A & M University requested his copyright release to instruct his hose deployment method internationally [http://HoseRoller.net]. A first to handroll 100 ft of 5” LDH and prepare any length for immediate deployment [including the world’s first functional http://HoseCabinet.com] that transitions into an 8:1 Mechanical Advantage http://RescueWinch.com

In 2008 perfected his http://FireBusterPro.com Home Fire Protection System; now he’s a private sector first to copyright Wildland Fire Hydraulics and direct the creation of https://HydraulicsApp.com and invent a mechanical http://HydraulicsSlideRule.com to calculate TOTAL Engine Pressure in seconds.

His research inspired http://HENway.org A progressive hoselay methodology that allows nozzle flow to increase 25% (50% more “Knock-Down” at 75 GPM) and extend 500’/83% farther and pump water 639’ higher at 1,100’ on a 32% grade to exponentially increase firefighter SAFETY!
