Features

  • Enhanced Control: Utilizing the firefighter’s torso and lower body strength, the Aqua Blaster enhances control over the fire hose and nozzle, enabling advancing and maneuvering without assistance.
  • Hands-Free Maneuverability: The fire hose can be maneuvered hands-free, providing better balance and allowing the user to brace themselves while walking or advancing the hose.
  • Injury Reduction: The Aqua Blaster significantly reduces injuries such as chronic joint and back pain, commonly associated with long-term fire hose use.
  • Durable Construction: Built from heavy-duty lightweight aluminum, the harness/frame ensures durability and ease of use.
  • Flow Control Components: Featuring two 90-degree elbow swivels attached to a connecting tube, the Aqua Blaster allows for easy pivoting to the left or right, adjusting the water stream’s direction. The fire nozzle can be rotated up and down and locked at a fixed vertical angle.

  • Versatile Compatibility: Both elbows have a 150-degree range of rotation. One elbow is equipped with a fire hose adapter coupling, while the other accepts the fire nozzle of your choice.
