ANNUAL HYDRANT & VALVE SURVEYS
HYDRANT.COM performs annual inspections, testing, and surveys. Our comprehensive programs include annual safety inspections, flow testing, valve surveying/exercising, extensive reporting, work order systems, and residual fire hydrant flow tests to determine water main capabilities. Flushing water main lines help maintain a safe water supply for residents.
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 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.
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.
