Abstract/Contents: | States that "growing legions of superintendents are turning to firefighting equipment to combat the ravages of summer heat stress." Suggests that "the advantage of these firefighting nozzles is that [one] can adjust the water volume and the pattern of stream [they] want to lay down on the turf." Provides information on various companies that produce high-volume nozzles and the different styles, including POK Firefighting of Cambridge, Maryland; Cyclone by Full Coverage Irrigation, and the Hotshot. States that "POK also is offering converted fire proportioners, used to lay down fire-suppressing foam, for turf managers in applying pesticides and fertilizers." |
