Where are Handline nozzles typically located?

Handline nozzles are typically located in the nozzle compartment of a fire apparatus. This designated area is specifically designed for the storage of equipment that firefighters use directly during operations, including handline nozzles. The nozzle compartment is structured to allow quick access to these tools in emergencies, ensuring that firefighters can deploy water effectively and efficiently during fire incidents.

The other options refer to various compartments on a fire apparatus that serve different purposes. The cockpit compartment houses the driver and controls, the storage locker is used for general storage of equipment not immediately needed, and the utility compartment may hold tools and equipment for maintenance or other operational needs. None of these compartments are specifically intended for the rapid deployment of handline nozzles like the nozzle compartment is.
