Any updates on the 2 firefighters hurt today that were transported als?

Hope they are recovering well.

As per firefighter close calls, a FF fell into an in-ground pool and a Mayday was transmitted. There isnt much other info on this.

Speedy recovery to the injured members.

This type of incident happens more often then one would think. I remember watching an "American Heat" newsmagazine VHS that came once a month to our firehouse, and it spotlighting this type of incident. Especially nowadays with all the pool covers designed to "blend in".

Just a reminder for the RIT to be ready for anything.

Are there any regulations regarding support capabilities for properly installed pool covers? By this I mean, are they rated to support a certain amount of weight is anchored correctly?
