** HRN is an 8 foot long aluminum pipe with a 68 degree 2 foot bend. HRN is attached to a standard 2 1/2” FDNY shut-off. The shut-off is permanently attached to the nozzle. It has a 1 1/8” MST (removable). The HRN is checked weekly during MUD and before use…sec 4
***May have to be stretched 3 floors below..5.7
*** The supply line must be attached to the HRN before the nozzle is slid out on the window sill for use…5.10
Supplied by a 2 1/2” hoseline, the High-Rise Nozzle will produce flows of 200-225 gpm at 50 psi nozzle pressure with water flowing
B: A hole approximately 3x3 is needed in the ceiling in order for the cockloft nozzle to fit. The clearing between the top of the ceiling joists and the bottom of the roof joists must be a minimum of 4” to enable the operation of the cockloft nozzle

Explanation:
A- Heavy smoke stains on glass objects REMOTE FROM the point of origin, usually indicate a slow fire build up
B- Light smoke stains on glass objects usually indicate a rapid build-up of the fire, little fire damage and are found CLOSE to the point of origin
C- Small crazing of glass means intense and rapid heat build up and will be found closer to the point of origin

Explanation:
An alternate method, when tarps are not available or the box fan cannot be hung, is to position the fan inside the contaminated area facing the exhaust opening 6 to 8 feet back and tilted up at an angle of approximately 30 degrees. This positioning will form a seal of air around the exhaust opening preventing churning.
A Note: This will allow clean exterior air to enter the structure and replace the contaminated air.
C Note: When tarps are not used, churning of the interior air occurs, limiting our ability to ventilate the area.
