Seconds matter in saving lives. DO NOT PARK ON FIRE HYDRANTS. On June 27th, a second alarm fire broke out on Jesup Place in the Bronx – a fire that turned fatal, thanks in part to a parked car that blocked a hydrant. The owner of the car received a $4,000 fine following a criminal summons from FDNY Fire Protection Inspectors. This selfish act slowed down our ability to get water on the fire and put residents and first responders in danger. | New York City Fire Department (FDNY)

25 vs. 1,000 gallons/min 💧 It’s a big difference! Spray caps make hydrants safe — just 25 gpm instead of 1,000! That protects pressure, prevents injuries, and helps avoid discolored water caused by stirred-up sediment. Get one FREE at your local New York City Fire Department (FDNY) firehouse. | NYC Water
