PPA Academy, Spokane Valley Fire Department

In 2011, the Spokane Valley Fire Department (Washington), sponsored a Positive Pressure Attack Train-the-Trainer Academy.

Our thanks go to the Spokane Valley Fire Department for hosting the event and to all the students for allowing pictures!

Below are photos of the live burn portion of the class taken by Joan of Ventry Solutions, Inc. Students who were in the class are welcome to use these photos. Photos below are shown in consecutive order. No editing has been done except cropping of thumbnails. Please contact Joan for a free CD.

The VENTRY fan used here is a 24GX160, a 24-inch propeller, 4.8 hp Honda motor, and optional Large Pneumatic Wheels.

Ventry Solutions, Inc. recommends fan placement from 8 to 12 feet back in most situations, due to the dramatic CFM increase. Please see the In The Know page of this site for operating instructions for VENTRY Fans. We also have links to Tactical PPV training online.
