We do a consultation, I have seen many videos where slow enough to make attacks on fire after arriving at the place, that's for something in particular? osea make some sort of review beyond the power of the court? second in this particular case is not better access by entering the normal case, then upload to extinguish the fire?.
I tell them that these consultations because here in Argentina or at least where I have no wooden buildings are all masonry (brick and cement) so that we can always go for the tickets and try to run normal calories and smoke in the direction of the exterior window.
Sorry if the paresco unintelligent questions.
Now thank you very much for the answers!
Les hago una consulta, he visto muchos videos donde demoran bastante en realizar los ataques al fuego una vez llegados al lugar, eso es por algo en particular?? osea hacen algun tipo de revisión mas alla del corte de la energia??, segundo en este caso en particular no es mejor entrar por los accesos normales de la cas y luego subir para extinguir el fuego???.
Les cuento que hago estas consultas ya que aqui en Argentina o al menos de donde yo soy no tenemos construcciones de madera son todas de mamposteria (ladrillos y cemento) por lo que siempre que podemos entramos por las entradas normales y tratamos de correr las calorias y el humo en direcciones a las ventana exteriores.
Perdon si paresco poco inteligente por las preguntas.
Desde ya muchas gracias por las respuestas!!

Im glad everyone is ok, but..... a good size up would have let them know that the fire was in the basement and that would have led to a proper attack. Regardless I am very thankfull they are ok and their ff survival skills kicked in

That's why you should take the ENTIRE window!

Why not make a door out of a window and put the ladder tip at or below the sill. The guys would not have had as much trouble getting out.
