Fire departments extinguish motor vehicle fires using specialized techniques and equipment to ensure safety and effectiveness. Upon arrival, firefighters assess the situation to determine the fire's location and potential hazards, such as fuel tanks, electrical components, or hazardous materials. • Fire hoses are typically used to deliver large volumes of water or foam to quickly suppress the flames. When dealing with engine fires, firefighters carefully open the hood to minimize oxygen intake and then spray extinguishing agents to smother the fire. • For fires involving the vehicle's interior, firefighters ventilate the area by breaking windows or opening doors and then apply water or foam to cool and extinguish the flames. They remain vigilant for potential reignition and ensure the fire is completely out before clearing the scene. Firefighters also take precautions to protect themselves from toxic fumes and potential explosions by wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and using self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). • #TakingCareGJ #GJFD #firefighter #emt #paramedic #firefighterjobs #westerncolorado #gjcity #grandjunction #CityofGJ #GrandJunction #westernslope #GJFD
