    Firefighter Turned Inventor: Jason Cerrano on Revolutionizing Water on the Fireground

    In this episode of The Burning Edge, we sit down with Jason Cerrano, a classic example of a firefighter who saw a problem and engineered a solution. For decades, managing the complex web of valves and pressures on a fire engine has been a manual, high-stakes job—one that pulls a vital crew member away from the fire. Jason lived this reality and decided to change it. Join us as Jason shares his incredible journey from the front lines of firefighting to the forefront of innovation. He recounts the specific calls that sparked the idea for his groundbreaking invention, the SAM system. This smart water management system automates the chaos of the pump panel, allowing firefighters to focus on the firefight, not the firetruck.
