Fire Hydrant Flow Test
At Evolve Fire Safety, we conduct accurate fire hydrant flow tests to measure availability of water supply. Our professional testing services help property owners, engineers, and fire departments verify hydrant performance and water availability for fire suppression. We provide fire hydrant flow test service in following steps.
Step 1: Initial Contact & Quotation
Call, text, or email us with the location of the hydrants you need tested. We will provide a quotation based on the number of hydrants and site conditions. If required, we will also assist in obtaining any necessary municipal permits before testing.
Step 2: Site Assessment & Test Preparation
Before testing, we inspect the hydrants and surrounding area for any obstructions, damages, or maintenance issues. This ensures a safe and accurate test while preventing water damage or pressure surges in the system.
Step 3: Conducting the Flow Test (NFPA 291 Standards)
Using calibrated equipment, we follow NFPA 291 guidelines to measure hydrant performance:
✔ Static Pressure – The water pressure in the system before the hydrant is opened.
✔ Residual Pressure – The pressure while the hydrant is flowing.
✔ Pitot Pressure – Measured at the flowing hydrant to determine actual flow rate.
✔ Flow Rate Calculation – We calculate the available fire flow using NFPA 291 formulas.
Step 4: Data Analysis & Detailed Report
After testing, we provide a comprehensive report that includes:
✔ Flow test results (static and residual Pressure)
✔ Calculated fire flow (GPM/LPM)
