Description

The Ministry purchases an average of approximately 4000 Lengths of Forestry Fire Hose per year to replace Forestry Fire Hose which was burned or damaged beyond repair. This amount of Forestry Fire Hose purchased in any year can be subject to significant fluctuation depending on the severity of the fire season. The approximate average annual purchase quantity referred to above is not to be considered as a forecast or representation, guarantee or commitment of any future annual Forestry Fire Hose purchases by the Ministry and is provided as background information only. This figure is based on past requirements and may be greater or less than actual quantities of Hose purchased in any year under any Agreement resulting from the RFB.

The Ministry relies on Forestry Fire Hose as a significant tool in the suppression and control of forest fires. With Ontario’s wealth of natural water sources, pumps and Hose are still considered key devices in fighting fires. The Ontario inventory for 38mm Hose is approximately 38,000 Lengths.

Forestry Fire Hose used for fighting forest fires in Ontario must be able to perform in demanding and challenging environments, thus the Ministry’s Hose specifications described below are very precise. Hose with minimal Friction Loss is a major factor with the Ministry’s hose selection process. The vast majority of Ontario’s stock of fire hose possesses very good friction loss qualities. This feature allows our fire rangers to pump more water on a fire in less amount of time and enables them to pump water to fires over considerably long distances, which ultimately leads to more efficient means of saving and protecting Ontario’s resources.

The Ministry is seeking a vendor to supply and deliver Forestry Fire Hose to use to suppress wildland fires. The specifications of the Forestry Fire Hose is identified within the RFB.
