2½” TurboDraft™ Unit Operation
Usable fire flow volumes will vary based on hose friction loss and elevation. Increased usable flow rates can be achieved, depending on hose friction loss coefficients or when using 6” diameter hose. Field testing is advised to confirm actual flow rates for specific hose configurations. See the Distant Water Source Situation table for baseline values (below).
