LOLOL!!!

A fire department most certainly does know of the different systems used. When a building is built, it has to be built "to code". That includes a "fire code" which the "fire department" ensures it meets...

But in New Haven, they probably would never run into much more than a simple standpipe, since there are not a lot of skyscrapers or petroleum refineries there.
What type of water delivery system would be used at a refinery?

And when the fire department has responded to alarms in commercial buildings I was involved with, they knew nothing at all about the systems.
Often times I had to tell them what to do, in order to shut off the alarm and repressurize the system.
Oh, man, this shit is too fucking funny.

Thanks for the Independence Day laugh, Maat!
