CAFS...good vs bad points

[nobull911]

Our department just got trucks with CAFS abilities. Has anyone been using CAFS regurarly? I'm just curious on the good and bad sides to using it.

Thanks

Our brush truck is a CAFS unit. It's works great for brush fires. From what we've experienced we don't have a high chance of rekindle on brush fires as we do with regular water. We've only had one structure fire where we used the CAFS system and it worked well also until the other trucks could get there and take over. Hopes this helps and let me know if you have any questions.
