ANNUAL HYDRANT & VALVE SURVEYS

HYDRANT.COM performs annual inspections, testing, and surveys. Our comprehensive programs include annual safety inspections, flow testing, flushing of mains, valve surveying/exercising, extensive reporting, work order systems, and residual fire hydrant flow tests to determine water main capabilities.

Hydrant Flow Test to Determine Water Main Capacity

Hydrant Flow Testing Verifies the Water Mains Capacity

Hydrant flow testing tests water main capabilities. Hydrant flow tests are required prior to new construction. Flow testing is also conducted prior to the installation of fire suppression systems. Static, flow, and residual pressure data is used to calculate test results which are provided both numerically and graphically.

Fire Hydrant Flow Testing and Hydrant Flow Tests

Flow Testing, Annual Safety Inspections, ISO Reporting

Annual fire hydrant safety inspections and testing identifies OUT OF SERVICE hydrants, verifies reliability, freshens water supply and identifies low pressure areas throughout the distribution system. All hydrants are static and flow pressure tested. Flow testing annually will ensure flow pressures are adequate to fight fires.

Flow Testing, Annual Safety Inspections, ISO Reporting

Safety Inspections

Annual fire hydrant safety inspections are an important component done in conjunction with flow testing fire hydrants and flushing water mains. Many safety issues are impossible to detect without fire hydrant flow testing. An annual fire hydrant inspection is required for each fire hydrant.

Water Valve Surveying, Valve Exercising and Valve Locating Program

Water Valve Exercising

The AWWA recommends all water utilities initiate a valve exercise program that requires all valves to be inspected and operated on a regular basis. With thousands and thousands of valves, a valve exercising and valve surveying program can be intimidating. With the help of a professional surveying company, water valves can be surveyed, located, exercised and GPSed for integration into GIS.

Fire Hydrant Testing and Flow Testing Data

Survey Data GIS Integration

Our hydrant and valve survey reports are compatible with GIS. After a survey is complete, you will be given a file which you can use to create a shapefile and update hydrant and valve positions within GIS. Decide which attributes are important to you and filter the data to view the valves and hydrants in your GIS in a completely different way.

Fire Hydrant Flushing Notice and FAQ

All hydrants are required to be flushed at least annually. This page contains flushing purposes, hints, reminders and FAQ’s. Remember to always notify residents prior to a flushing program in order to keep them informed and help minimize dirty water complaints.

Water Valve Surveying, Valve Exercising and wireless exerciser

Wireless Valve Exerciser

Easily and effectively operate the valves in your system with a wireless automated valve exerciser. Valve exercising can be done easily and more effectively when you use an automatic valve exerciser. A wireless valve exerciser is a common tool used to improve worker performance while lowering operator exhaustion. Increase productivity with a wireless valve exerciser.
