Positive Pressure Ventilation (PPV)

Safety Considerations

  • The attack team coordinates and communicates with the IC and fan and exhaust control personnel.
  • Anticipate rapid fire growth if ventilation is increased absent the application of water for both planned and unplanned ventilation.
  • Consider wind speed and direction.
  • Post PPV CO concentrations.
