Firefighter turnout gear is essential to the protection of both the firefighter and those individuals they are trying to rescue. Debris that remains on turnout gear can damage it and render it incapable of providing the shield that the firefighters depend upon for survival.
The most efficient way for firehouses to comply with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) guidelines for cleaning turnout gear is to invest in a programmable, front-load washer-extractor. These machines allow for the precise control of water temperature, chemical types and amounts, number of baths, etc.
