MASTER STREAMS
• PROVIDE LARGE QUANTITIES OF WATER FOR DEFENSIVE FIRE FIGHTING ACTIVITIES

![Page 20: HOSE HANDLING PURPOSE Understand the hose team organizations and the responsibilities for each position.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051517/56649dc65503460f94abadb1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

• Master Streams are typically used for defensive fire fighting activities.
• The Key to using master streams is that they reach the intended target.
• It is difficult to be able to see where the stream is landing from the nozzle.
• Have someone (spotter) away from the nozzle evaluate the effectiveness of the stream.
