How important are your fire hydrants?

Static fire hydrant testin

Flowing fire hydrant testing

When we inspect your fire hydrants, among many factors there are two that stand out. The flowing pressure and the static pressure. Its important to understand how these two readings affect your safety and why its mandated to inspect you fire hydrants annually. The pressure of water flow is important to deliver the water needed to put out a fire. If the pressure and volume are inadequate, putting out a fire would be nearly impossible. In the event of a large unexpected fire, it may become necessary to use more than one fire hydrant. For this reason all related fire hydrants must be tested and exercised.

Over time pipes tend to experience blockage by rocks and other clogging agents. In an emergency accumulated rocks will affect the functionality of the hydrant. Another common safety issue that occurs when fire hydrants are neglected is that the opening valve becomes jammed and it would take precious time that could be otherwise used to save lives. Considering the speed of fire, you cannot afford to wait that long. Stay safe, exercise your fire hydrants. For questions about this procedure give us a call or fill out this quick form and we’ll call you as soon as possible.
