The Aqua Blaster is a harness/frame which supports a fire hose with attached nozzle and can be operated by a single firefighter. The firefighter’s torso and lower body strength allow for enhanced control of the fire hose and nozzle. Advancing and maneuvering is done without assistance. The Aqua Blaster reduces injuries like chro  nic pains in the joints and back that are often associated with the long-term use of fire hoses. The flow control components of the Aqua Blaster consist of two 90-degree elbow swivels attached to a connecting tube. The Aqua Blaster allows the user to easily pivot to the left or right adjusting the direction of the water stream. The fire nozzle can be rotated up and down and looked at a fixed vertical angle. It is supplied without the nozzle.
