Summary |
Water Supplies &
Sprinkler Systems
Course Description
|
Understanding water supplies and sprinkler system components is crucial to suppressing and controlling fires. Learn proper
maintenance and testing practices to significantly reduce the potential for a loss. Participants conduct a water supply test.
|
Dry Pipe, Deluge & Pre-Action Sprinkler Systems
Course Description
|
These systems have additional components and some are triggered by fire detection systems. Practice testing and resetting
practices of these different sprinkler systems to maintain peak operation.
|
Automatic Fire Pumps
Course Description
|
Fire pumps provide water flow and pressure necessary for an automatic sprinkler system to defend against fires. Don't wait
for a fire to find out if the fire pump will operate when the sprinkler system is activated — it will be too late.Participants
conduct an annual fire pump test.
|
Maintaining Water-Based Fire Protection Systems
Course Description
|
Develop a comprehensive game plan to maintain the operational status of water-based fire protection equipment including: standpipes
and hose systems, fire pumps, water storage tanks, fire hydrants, valves and connections. Testing procedures, obstruction
and impairment programs, plus recordkeeping requirements are detailed for each system.
|
Fire Detection & Alarm Systems
Course Description
|
Understanding fire detection initiating devices and the chemistry of fire is key to selecting the best system for different
occupancies. Proper maintenance and testing can alert occupants, trigger a fire suppression system and advise the authorities,
ultimately reducing injuries and damage.
|
Warehouse Fire Protection
Course Description
|
Unravel the issues behind NFPA standards for protection of storage areas. Learn how commodity class, storage methods and height
impact fire protection needs for warehouses. Participants will see the effects of different sprinklers used to protect warehouse
occupancies and assess the adequacy of protection for various storage configurations.
|
Sprinkler Plan Review
Course Description
|
Not all automatic sprinkler systems are created equally. Learn to evaluate sprinkler system design based on pipe sizing, sprinkler
head selection, occupancy classifications, hydraulic calculations and more. Compare data with consensus standards to determine
acceptability.
|
Standpipe Systems
Course Description |
This one-day seminar is a mix of classroom and live demonstrations that review standpipe systems. NFPA 14, IBC and NFPA 25
will be discussed, as well as installation and testing of standpipe systems. Hands-on activities include dry pipe trip testing,
electric fire pump test and flow test of standpipe valves as required by NFPA 14 and 25.
