RE: Foam Pourer Through Tank Roof
But there is such a thing as a "foam chamber" used to direct foam distribution during a fire event.

The "foam chamber" should be specified in the original tank design. This also means a fire protection study should be done at the time of storage tank specification and purchase....early in the project.
This is something that the MBAs frequently ignore...
