Return on investment may be another way to look at this. The hiring agency has to spend a certain amount of money and time to train a new recruit regardless of age. Then, the recruit works for a number of years for the agency before reaching retir...

We have 2700 feet of 5 inch hose between the three pumpers - 1000, 1000, and 700 feet. Also short 25 to 50 foot sections in the compartments to hook to a hydrant or complete a stretch.

Our biggest supply hose is a 3" hose. We are mainly rural with dry hydrants. We actually only have 2 real hydrants in our area and very rarely get calls in that area.

As a City our hydrants are no more than 600' apart but we carry on each engine 800' of 5", As someone that use to lay hundreds of feet of two lines of 2 1/2 or 3" the 5" is the best firefighting invention that has come along in a long time
