Fire hydrants

Fire hydrants are crucial infrastructure components in firefighting systems, typically located along streets and in public areas. These devices provide access to pressurized water that firefighters can use to extinguish fires quickly and effectively. Fire hydrants are connected to underground water mains and are equipped with valves that can be opened to release water when needed during emergencies. Their prominent red or yellow color and sturdy design make them easily identifiable and accessible, ensuring rapid response and efficient firefighting operations in urban and suburban settings.
