Fire Hydrant Flow Test
Fire Hydrant Flow Test Melbourne: Annual Flow Testing of Hydrants
If you’re implementing the new AS1851 (2012) standards in your building, our team can assist with your annual fire hydrant flow test in Melbourne. With extensive experience in conducting flow testing, we utilize accurate, calibrated equipment to ensure reliable results. Our services cover high-rise buildings, factories, schools, healthcare facilities, apartment blocks, and more. Following the test, an immediate report and a brief video documenting the hydrant’s performance will be provided. To ensure your peace of mind, a follow-up test will be scheduled in 12 months.
Additionally, we are equipped to perform flow tests on hydrant pump sets if necessary. The latest sonic flow testing equipment simplifies the process, making it pain-free. To see just how easy it is to test a single fire hydrant in a small building, check out this quick video demonstrating flow testing at a school.
Comprehensive Hydrostatic Testing
Hydrostatic testing on fire hydrant services is also part of our offerings. This testing typically occurs every five years and is coordinated with the required boost test. Our urban fire pumper truck from NSW allows us to boost even the largest buildings in Melbourne. During the boost test, water is pumped from a feed hydrant into the booster at the “booster point” in front of your building. The water then flows to the most disadvantaged point, where we capture the “assisted pressure and flow” reading, typically measuring 700 kPa @ 10 l/s. Depending on the building size, larger flows or additional hydrants may need to be operated.
