[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 4237855, member: 14646"] Not on these types of water trailers. These are powered by 2" dewatering pumps and can also syphon from a pond or other water source to fill the tank. Or a hydrant if close by. I have now water on my property other than two wells. Yeah, these water trailer have two sprayers on the back corners of the trailer that put out a ton of volume. I actually brought one home from work several weeks ago when I burn my brush piles. Turned it one with the sprayers off the back and drove in circles around the piles several times to soak the grass and it worked well. Then parked it hooked to my truck about 20 yards away with the fire hose out and ready to go. Wetted down the grass occasionally jsut for insurance. Yes. They do. THey are very similar in design but wouldn't think they woud have enough GPM to produce much a water stream/gpm other than for spraying herbicides. My neighbor with the cattle has a skid mounted unit specifically fpr fire fighting that goes in the bed of his UTV. By only concern is it only holds 70 gallons and the hose is 3/4" or so. It would help but I think I'd prefer much more capacity and GPM. [/QUOTE]
