He also explains that one of the biggest benefits is that the fire fighter doesn’t have to switch of the engine during this process and due to the overflow function can keep the engine running, while driving to the fire.This same water transfer function can be used to extinguish fires using water directly from the source and to move volumes of water in flood situations.
