Quote #: 22-1116EMFDMDU-01
Dear Chief Michael Long,
Thank you for your interest in our PumpPodUSA DRAFTS UNITS. We are pleased to present the following information

develop, maintain and test your Engineers and Firefighters. This Unit will enhance the safety, training, and practice for
candidates specifically while providing needed additional training opportunities to ensure that your department has the
most prepared and qualified workforce today.
The DRAFTS Unit will provide and allow your department to train with Full Flow Water your Firefighters and Engineers.
When deployed to the Battalions the Engine Companies can train WITHOUT having to call “Out of Service” thus
significantly increasing the hours of training but reducing time and costs related to these exercises. Another benefit to
the DRAFTS units is that they are self-contained and re-circulate the water required for a wide variety of training
evolutions as well as a host of NFPA testing requirements and water conservation mandated compliance. Each DRAFTS
Unit will allow approximately (2,100 USG) amount of water to be pump continually, literally saving millions of gallons
each year using the DRAFTS Units innovative design and construction.
