You should contact Akron Brass, Task Force and/or Elkhart or any of the other 
nozzle manufacturers to acquire performance data on what length and shape of 
pattern their nozzles will make at different pressures in the range of 
diameters offered.   With selectable flow and pressure nozzles, fire 
departments can discharge water from attack lines almost however they want to 
the limits of the equipment and available pressure.

Are you asking about a Class 1 or Class 2 hose stream?

I accord.
But my question is because we have equipment 39 ft. above the floor and we need 
to know if the hoses could be successful.

How high it could reach is not as important as how high it could reach and 
still do an effective job of firefighting.
