After a 16-hour shift on a fire line or a spill beach, a hot shower is a health measure as much as a comfort. It gets ash, oil and sweat off skin, cuts down on rashes and infections, and helps people sleep.
On wildfire the resource is the Mobile Shower Facility Unit (MSFU). KDT supplies shower units for fire camps of any size and for every other kind of incident.
KDT sizes its units the way the national program does. An MSFU is a shower trailer, a potable water vehicle, handwashing sinks and the support equipment to run them. Small units have 8–11 shower stalls and large units 12 or more, with separate men's and women's areas. Each unit holds 2,500+ gallons of gray water and has its own 1,500-gallon potable tank with 12 or more outside spigots for filling canteens, cubitainers and water bottles. Small units have 4 or more sinks and large units 8 or more. KDT brings the water in and the gray water out, and attendants keep the unit clean and stocked with soap and towels.
