Pump Flow Testing

Why perform an annual Pump Flow Test? Pump testing is a vital component to ensure 100% performance when your fire pump is under the most demanding conditions. Having an annual 20-10-10 NFPA flow test completed by a third party such as 10-8 will validate the results and provide documentation to the AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) as well as ISO (International Standards Organization) which could effect the insurance ratings in your coverage area.

This approximately hour long procedure (excluding set up & tear down) proving the fire pump, and all rated components are operating at their rated capacity from a draft will quickly expose deficiencies. We recommend coupling an annual pump flow test along with unit PM’s and repairs so any items needing attention can be repaired as soon as possible.

Pump flow testing can be performed at our facility or off site.

If you have any questions regarding pump testing schedules or procedures, please give us a call.

Aerial & Ground Ladder Testing

There has never been an easier set up for all of your aerial needs, including the ground ladders. Our partnership with ATC (Aerial Testing Company) has streamlined the process for fire departments seeking great service without having to make phone calls to multiple businesses.

As with fire pump testing, it is recommended that you couple an annual aerial PM along with its annual recertification. Both of these can be performed at our facility or at yours!

Today’s sophisticated equipment requires service by knowledgeable and precise technicians. Don’t risk an apparatus or ground ladder failure. All testing is to NFPA 1911 & 1932 standards which set the expectations for the industry. Our testing procedures are broken into four areas with detailed checklists for each..

Areas include:

  • Annual Visual Inspection
  • Annual Operational Tests
  • Annual Functional Tests
  • 5 Year Non Destructive Testing

Once testing is completed your department will receive a detailed comprehensive 28 page checklist covering every component that is tested and inspected. One unique feature of these reports is that they are tailor made to your apparatus and these can be used internally by your department for weekly, monthly or quarterly inspections.
