Dear Bloggers,
I believe that sometime back the Honda EU1000 generator was sent away for repair. We noticed that it is back. Would someone please enlighten all of us and share what was found, it’s present condition, and prognosis for the future? Thank you.
I have been told that we have been missing an SCBA voice amp for a number of shifts. This is one that is swapped between interns at HQ. Please take a look around for one that is someplace that it shouldn’t be. I wonder if there is now an extra at Station 2? Ideally this type of thing would be reported on the first day that it went missing and quickly located. Thank you.
The three newly occupied building (2 on Waterfront and 1 on 29th)in Mill Pond now have lock boxes. In these boxes are building access keys, elevator keys, and alarm keys. The boxes are located by the main access door for each building. The alarm reset needs a key to the panel inside, once put in override or operator mode the reset button can be pressed to reset the alarm.
I have removed the AED Pro from 2522 and placed it in the hallway as conversation piece. Is there anyone who is not comfortable operating the one that Chief Curzon obtained for us?
It is about time to rotate the Pro to another apparatus.
Upon inquiry a decision has been made to keep the Sparky suit in the loft. DC Straily will get a better container and get the suit cleaned for future use. Thank you.
We have started working on the A/V upgrade for the training room. This will be a work in progress for a while. I have some cables on order which will allow for a more stream-lined set up of the equipment. I hope to have a fairly functional set-up by the end of next weekend.
Please be patient, I am sure that there will be some “tweaks” to the system over the next few weeks. The over-all goal is to make the system as user-friendly as possible and require as few button pushes as possible.

I just thought I would let you know the schedule for next week (starting
January 15th).
We are going to start the boiler conversion on Tuesday morning. It is
usually about 3 days. We have
a plan in place to reduce this down time.
This weekend we are making up as many piping sections in our shop in order
to reduce the down time for the boiler installation.
The guys got a good jump on the radiant heaters last week. I'm hoping that
we can have 1 or more radiants
running while the conversion is in progress.
The weather doesn't look as if it will be too cold. You might let everyone
know that we will have the system down
and will try to get the conversion done as quickly as possible. Portable
heaters might be a good idea and we should
let everyone know to dress warm.
The computer system is running fine. We had the system programmed for heat a
69 deg F ( public building are suppose to be 68)
The police chief thought that was a little cool so I have it around 71 to
72. The setting is a minor detail and you guys can
set it anywhere you want.
I'll be working on the piping in the shop tomorrow if you need to discuss
anything with me. Hope your weekend is going well.
Thanks

The fire hydrant at Alameda and Lincoln will be out of service this morning, Wednesday, January 11, 2012, for approximately 4 hours. Stacy from Public Works will call and let us know when the fire hydrant is back in service.
The latest on door #5. A repairman was here on 01/09/2012, he replaced the awaited part. He asked us to open the door with the remote. It worked. He didn’t say it was fixed, he just left. The door worked fine for the rest of the shift. I don’t want to assume, but …..
The present litebar in the loft has been offered to Elsie. We will be storing a couple of newer LED bars for future use. In the event that someone comes looking for a litebar please be sure to give them the old one.
Stacy from Public Works called this morning, Wednesday, January 04, 2012 to let me know that the fire hydrants at 49th & 50th on Birch Street will be out of service today while they are working on them. Public Works will call us when the fire hydrants are back in service.
