Flow & Pressure Testing On Demand

NFPA 14 Standpipe Flow Tests, Hydrostatic Pressure Tests, Trip Tests & Pipe Flushing and Hydrant Testing for Commercial Builders, Fire Protection Firms, Sprinkler Contractors, Engineering Firms, Property Managers & More

Flow and Pressure Testing is a critical function that must be performed on Fire Systems to keep them operational and up to code. Unlike most mechanical systems, sprinklers and standpipes are primarily idle and problems can go undetected without the proper testing.

We are in this business to work hand in hand with Fire Marshals, Contractors and Fire Protection Firms and more to pass these important commercial building tests on demand. We work with tight schedules to make this a seamless and easy process for everyone involved!

We are here to help and a proud member of the AFSA!

Why You May Need Us

The Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) administers the process for development of the state building and fire codes; however, the authority to enforce the code, falls under the purview of the local building and fire officials.

The Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC) has requirements for testing of new fire protection systems and equipment. A copy of the current USBC.

USBC (VCC) Section 905.2 requires all new standpipe systems to be installed in accordance with NFPA 14. The NFPA 14 states that tests be administered by a proper water pump or fire truck.

The Virginia Statewide Fire Prevention Code (SFPC) also includes
requirements for maintenance of existing fire protection systems
and equipment. SFPC Section 905.2 requires all existing standpipe
systems to be maintained in accordance with NFPA 25 and NFPA 14.

We are available and ready to help contractors and fire protection firms
run and pass these standpipe flow tests on demand as well as pressure
tests, trip tests and flushing.

Testimonials

  • Jose Oyarce - Metropolitan Fire Protection

    I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the exceptional service provided by Taylor and his team at FLOW, during recent fire inspections.

    Working with Taylor has been an absolute pleasure, and I must say that his expertise and dedication have greatly impressed me. In particular, I was facing difficulties finding assistance for these types of inspections, but Taylor's fire truck surpassed all expectations and delivered outstanding results.

    His professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to go above and beyond have truly made a difference in our operations. I wholeheartedly recommend FLOW for any fire inspection needs. Their commitment to excellence and the quality of their work speak volumes about their capabilities.

    I strongly suggest considering them for your standpipe flow inspections. You can be rest assured that you will receive nothing short of exceptional service and results.

  • Jake Allen - Wolf Fire Protection

    "FLOW came to the rescue on a project where our typical equipment vendors couldn't meet our schedule. The pumper truck worked as required and made things easier than renting a standalone pump. Will be using them for all of our standpipe flow tests!"

  • Sean Martin - Breeden Construction

    We are a general contractor and we hired FLOW to help us with their pumper truck to pass a required County flow test inspection. Andy and Taylor were both great to work with, showed up late when we needed them and early when we needed them. And they got us the successful passed inspections that we needed. We will use them again.”
