Another simple but effective photo showing the importance of carrying more than the standard 20-feet of suction in the rural environment. This pumper's 30-feet of suction hose allowed the crew to set-up a dump tank behind the pumper and still reach it with the suction hose carried on the rig. The use of the Fol Da Tank through-the-wall flange eliminated the "hump" in the suction hose as well...thus improving the reach of the hose.
