Drafting strainers are essential for fire departments pumping water from static sources like ponds, retention basins, swimming pools, and open water during relay operations or when hydrants aren't available. TheFireStore carries barrel strainers for wildland forestry operations, low-level and shallow water strainers for basement flooding and limited-depth sources, plus heavy-duty box strainers built to handle debris and prevent pump damage. Whether you're responding to a rural structure fire or supporting wildland operations, the right drafting strainer ensures continuous water flow and protects your apparatus investment.
