Seems like a heck of a lot of pumps for a loft fire?

I may be wrong in thinking this, but the reason why there are four pumps and an aerial in attendance is because, Suffolk may have a policy of turning out 3 pumps to a house fire, the TL will probably have been requested to get better access to the loft and the TL has come with a support pump. As i say i may be incorrect, if somebody can clarify.

No Nathan you are correct! In Suffolk the average report of a house fire usually brings 3 pumps if its person reported! And as u say the TL goes with a support pump so your absolutely correct my man.!
