A fire sprinkler system is an active fire suppression system that provides automatic dousing of a fire. Sprinkler systems require a constant water pressure supply to ensure correct activation and need to be regularly serviced and tested to ensure proper  function in an emergency.

A fire hydrant provides a source of water to fire fighters from mains water supply.

Pressure to these systems may be assisted by a diesel or electric pump set, which in turn has to be regularly serviced to ensure correct operation.

Testing Frequencies:

Hydrants: 6 Monthly

Pumps: Monthly with Provisions or Weekly

Sprinklers: Monthly with Provisions or Weekly
