Street Hydrant Test For Form 71

Welcome to Fire Testing, the business you need by your side when looking for a street hydrant test for form 71. It is a legal requirement to ensure all hydrants work according to the standards so they will be useful in the event of a fire. Hydrant commissioning tests that the hydrant system has been designed and installed correctly. The main elements of street hydrant test for form 71 we offer includes:

• A hydrostatic test
• A pump appliance boost test from the most disadvantaged hydrants
• Testing each pump set from the most disadvantaged hydrants
• Measuring the fire tank in-fill rate
• Checking signage, gauges, test points, locks and block plans are installed
• Submitting a Commissioning report including a Form 71

The pump appliance boost test is required for sites with a booster cabinet. It ensures the friction loss is within acceptable limits and allows the fire brigade working pressure to be calculated.
