Firefighter Training: Turbo Draft, Iowa

GotBigWater – During our 16-hr Rural Water Supply Operations Seminar in Johnson County, Iowa we had the opportunity to demonstrate the use of a TurboDraft device. 

During the dump site practical skills session, folks practiced setting up a TurboDraft to supply water back to a dump tank so that the pumper could flow water using an open-relay set-up. 

While a “simple” device, folks must practice with TurboDraft if they plan on being successful on “game day”, otherwise tank water is gone and so is the chance to recover. 

The clip is narrated by Mark Davis of GBW Associates, LLC.
