ABSTRACT:
Fire fighting equipment is adapted for installation in association with a swimming pool or spa and associated water filtering and circulating equipment. A three-way valve is fluidly connected to a pipe which delivers water to a swimming pool filter under the pressure of a pump normally used for circulating water in the conventional swimming pool installation. The three-way valve or equivalent valve system, normally delivers the water to the filter from where it is recirculated into the swimming pool or spa. The three-way valve, or equivalent valve system, is capable of optionally diverting a substantial amount of the water, under the pressure of the pump, into a fire hose which is fluidly connected to the three-way valve. The fire hose, with a suitable hose attached to one end thereof, is thus capable of fighting a fire in the proximity of the swimming pool by using the available water and pump normally associated with the swimming pool.
