Blow back Blow back isn't a new term in the Vocabulary of fire but recently it got national head- lines in a Canadian fire which killed a fire fighter in a high - rite office building fire. Open- ing ajioor (it wasn't his fault), the fire fighter was blasted. When air is heated, it ex - ponds. and increases ,in pressure. The vital oxygen is turned into deadly gases. NOW you know one of the re4sons why the fire fighter chops a hole in the,roof. It is to gent the' blaze gases and smoke. ©Congratulations, jack, and. best wishes:. for a successful future. • Phone 35'-2450 WINGHAM ELECTRICAL.
