dtmdragon Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 It was meant to be a quiet Sunday night overtime shift! Lol I'm running the high pressure hose reel off closest to the fire: http://m.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11542106 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 Wow! How fast did it take for the fire to be put out and for the firefighters to get there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtmdragon Posted November 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 About 5 to 8 minutes to knock it with two high pressure hose reels. The hedge was 30 meters long and burning like that the entire length. There was a double garage next to it right down the end. Took us about 7 or so minutes to get there from the time the station bells went. Looked like a house fire from the station. The house had all the windows cracked on that side, the paint completely blistered and the spouting was melted so it was very close to taking the house. I got about half way down the hedge and had to bail out and start my BA set as I was taking a hammering from the smoke lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
