Fire Hoses

The Fire Hoses are the main arsenal for fighting fires. They are stored in either Jupiter or Venus. They can be used in a wide range of emergencies.

Trivia[]

From Series 1 to 4 they used traditional UK/Irish fire hoses from the 1980's such as;
- A 19mm hose reel, with an older garden hose style branch for smaller fires
  - 2 rolls of 70mm layflat red hose with British Instantaneous couplings, that are used either to resupply Jupiter or attach a branchpipe to become a main jet to tackle larger fires where greater volumes of water are needed. The branchpipe is valveless which means the flow of water is constant and cannot be closed unless the water is shut off from the pump itself. It also requires 2 firefighters to operate due to the high power from the water pressure
In Deep Trouble for Sam, a special hard suction hose, known as an "Ejection Pipe" was used by Penny Morris to remove the soil which was trapping Sam in the hole in her garden. This is a special type of hard suction hose because it can remove soft debris as well as water unlike most conventional hard suction fire hoses. It also has a mini electric motor pump and power button built into the inlet coupling which means it doesn't require suction from the main fire pump. Since this motorized version of the hard suction hose is unique to Fireman Sam, it can be considered one of Sam or Penny Morris's inventions.
From Series 5 to 9 they used dark red fabric hoses with old fashioned brass nozzles which are brittle in colder weather.
From Series 8 onwards they have yellow hoses for sticky foam.
From Heroes of the Storm onwards they use bright red or yellow rubber hoses with a more modern and traditional pistol grip style branch.
