Engine Duties
The job of “the engine” is primarily to put the fire out. It contains a water pump, water tank, and thousands of feet of fire hose, both to supply the engine with water and to allow our firefighters to extinguish the fire. It also contains a variety of tools that allow us to do things such as forcible entry, and salvage and overhaul.
