Keeping your water based extinguishing systems operational

If your building’s active fire systems include water-based extinguishing systems, such as sprinkler or deluge systems, it’s important to make sure the flow of water and the water pressure is maintained to maximise functionality. Fire pumps monitor the flow and pressure of the systems they are attached to and activate when the system pressure drops below the baseline.

Fire pumps are also required to feed hydrant systems. In an ideal situation, these systems are not used for long periods of time so make sure to keep up with fire equipment maintenance and ensure your systems keep working as they are supposed to.

Keep the water flowing so it's there when you need it

Design

Finding the right space, setup and design for your buildings pump system will ensure best results when installing.

Installation

Accessibility for maintenance, functional parts and secure connections are are integral to good fire pump installation.

Commission

Fire pumps need to be looped into the overall safety systems of your building by trained professionals to ensure functionality.

FES is making sure your systems stay operational

In an ideal world your fire safety, suppression and evacuation systems will never come into use. If they aren’t used that means there hasn’t been an emergency. But this means that it’s very easy to have the systems fall to the back of your mind. The last thing you want is for your systems to fail when you need them so it’s important not only to install the right system but keep them maintained.

FES offer a range of specialist services including installation, maintenance and inspection of your systems and will work with you to ensure your building is inspected regularly and kept in line with the compliance standards that are applicable to the situation of the premises.

Keep your systems properly supported:

There are many different types of fire pump systems but they mostly fall into two main classes, positive displacement pumps and centrifugal pumps. FES staff will be able to ascertain the best fire pump option for your building. Whether feeding into sprinklers, fire hydrant pumps or all of the above our team will make sure your systems will work when you need them.

Positive Displacement Pump

Pumps that create incredibly high pressure with more limited flow than the various types of centrifugal pumps

Centrifugal Pumps

These pumps create pressure through centrifugal force. As there are multiple ways to create the spinning required there are various different types of centrifugal pumps.
