What can be used to quickly make a water chute?

A salvage cover is designed specifically for protecting property from water damage and can be used effectively to create a temporary water chute. When you need to direct water runoff away from a structure or a designated area, a salvage cover can be laid out to guide the water flow, thanks to its flexible yet durable material. This versatility makes it a suitable choice for managing water during firefighting operations.

The other options do not serve this purpose effectively. Large diameter hose (LDH) is primarily used for supplying large volumes of water and is not suitable for creating a chute. A drop tank is designed for storing large amounts of water but doesn't provide the necessary structure to direct water flow. A roll of carpet is not intended for use in firefighting scenarios and does not have the water-resistant properties necessary to function as a chute.
