ABSTRACT:
A concealed vent system is disclosed for closed system fire tank trucks, which permits the tank truck to be adequately vented while being filled completely by an auxilliary source of water. The vent system is a sloped conduit that originates in the clean out hatch atop the tank and terminates in a valving means external to the tank and rearward of the rearmost wheels of the tank truck, such that water vented does not pose a safety hazard to fire fighters.
