Fire Sprinkler vs. Fire Alarm Inspections

The fire alarms and fire sprinklers in your building need to be inspected and tested in accordance with NFPA guidelines and local codes. With different regulations for fire sprinkler and fire alarm inspection and testing frequencies for each type of system, it can be hard to keep track of when your systems need service. Inspection intervals will vary based on the AHJ (authority having jurisdiction) and the type of system you have.

Inspections vs. Testing of Fire Protection Systems

Inspections of fire protection systems include visual checks that the system looks to be in the proper condition. Testing of systems involves more in-depth physical checks that your systems are functioning correctly.

Fire Sprinkler Testing & Inspection Frequencies

Inspections and testing of fire sprinkler systems may be performed weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually.

Weekly

Every week, inspections of gauges in dry, pre-action, and deluge sprinkler systems should be performed.

Monthly

Inspections of gauges in wet pipe sprinkler systems should occur on a monthly basis.

Quarterly

Inspections of fire department connections, water flow alarm devices, valve supervisory alarm devices, supervisory signal devices, control valves, and hydraulic nameplates should be performed every quarter. Testing of fire sprinkler mechanical devices should occur on a quarterly basis.

Semi-Annually

Semi-annually, vane and pressure switch type devices must be tested.

Annually

Annually, hangar and seismic bracing, pipes and fittings, information signage, and spare sprinklers should be inspected.  Every year, a full test and tagging and physical checks on all parts of the fire sprinkler system should be performed, including:

  • Water flow test
  • Fire pump test
  • Antifreeze concentration test (if applicable)
  • Alarm tests
  • Trip tests of dry, deluge and pre-action valves

Every 3 Years

If you have a dry or pre-action sprinkler system, testing leak rates need to be tested every 3 years.

Every 5 Years

Every 5 years, you need to get an internal inspection of your sprinkler piping performed and test the gauges. Sprinklers exposed to extra high temperatures or harsh environments should be tested or replaced every 5 years.

After 15 Years, Then Every 10 Years

Dry sprinklers should be tested or replaced after 15 years and then every 10 years after that.

After 20 Years, Then Every 10 Years

Fast response sprinklers should be tested after 20 years and then every 10 years after that.

After 50 Years, Then Every 10 Years

Standard response sprinklers should be tested after 50 years, then every 10 years after that.

Fire Alarm Inspection & Testing Frequencies

Inspections of your fire alarm systems should occur weekly, monthly, semi-annually, and annually.

Weekly

Every week, you should inspect control equipment including fuses, LEDs, power supply, and check for trouble signals on your fire alarm system.

Monthly

Inspections of batteries for your fire alarm system should be performed monthly.

Semi-Annually

On a semi-annual basis, testing of the functionality of flow switches, tamper switches, and backup batteries should be performed. Visual inspections of initiation and notification devices should occur semi-annually.

Annually

Fire alarm inspection and testing should be performed every year, including:

  • Horn/strobe testing and inspection.
  • Inspection and testing of pull stations, detectors, and flow switches.
  • Control panel testing and inspection.
  • Battery and backup power supply panel testing and inspection.
  • Testing of voice evacuation equipment.

The Importance of Life Safety Services

If you own or manage a building, you should be taking measures to protect your building’s occupants. Installing and servicing life safety systems can help to keep people safe.

What are Life Safety Systems?

Life safety systems are composed of elements that help ensure the safety of a building’s occupants during an emergency such as a fire, earthquake, security break-in, gas leak, or power failure. Examples of life safety systems include:

  • Fire sprinklers / suppression systems
  • Fire alarm and detection systems
  • Fire extinguishers
  • Central station monitoring
  • Emergency and exit lighting
  • Mass notification
  • Intercoms

Why do Life Safety Systems Need to be Inspected?

All the life safety systems in your building will need inspections, testing and service to keep them functional and prevent deficiencies. Inspections and testing are required by many AHJs and NFPA standards. Staying on top of inspections offer many benefits including:

  • Prevent deficiencies in your systems
  • Avoid fines due to noncompliance
  • Save money on insurance premiums
  • Prevent expensive repairs down the road
  • Extend the lifespan of your equipment
  • Have peace of mind that your people are protected when an emergency occurs

Fire Prevention Week 2021

 

Fire Prevention Week is October 3rd – 9th, 2021. Every year, Fire Prevention Week is observed during the week of October 9th in commemoration of the Great Chicago Fire that occurred in 1871. This fire killed more than 250 people, left 100,000 homeless, destroyed more than 17,400 structures, and burned more than 2,000 acres of land. The goal of Fire Prevention Week is to raise awareness about the dangers of fire and spread knowledge about fire safety to reduce the number of fire related deaths and injuries. 

“Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety!”

The theme of Fire Prevention Week for 2021 is “Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety!” which aims to educate about the different sounds that smoke and carbon monoxide alarms make. Understanding the sounds of your alarms can help you to take action to keep you and your family safe.

Smoke Alarms

A continued set of three loud beeps means there is smoke or a fire. If you hear this noise, you should get out of your home, stay out and call 9-1-1. When the battery is low on your smoke alarms, they will make a single chirp every 30-60 seconds. If you hear a chirp, replace the batteries in your alarms. After replacing the batteries if you still hear a chirp, it means the alarm is at the end of its life and needs to be replaced. Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years.  

Carbon Monoxide Alarms

A continuous set of four loud beeps indicates that carbon monoxide is in your home. If you hear four beeps, you should get out of your home, stay out, and call 9-1-1. If you hear a single chirp every 30-60 seconds, replace the batteries in your carbon monoxide alarms. After replacing the batteries if you still hear a chirp, it means the alarm is at the end of its life and needs to be replaced. CO alarms also have “end of life” sounds that vary by manufacturer. This means it’s time to get a new CO alarm.

Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarms for Physical Disabilities

If you or someone in your home has a physical disability, you should make sure that your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms meet their needs. Here are some things to keep in mind: 

  • Install a bedside alert device that responds to the sound of the smoke and CO alarms. Use of a low frequency alarm can also wake a sleeping person with mild to severe hearing loss
  • Use a pillow or bed shaker alarm
  • Use devices with strobe lights to alert people of smoke alarm sounds
  • Sleep with your mobility device, glasses, and phone close to your bed
  • Keep pathways like hallways lit with night lights and free from clutter to make sure everyone can get out safely

Types of Fire Hydrants & Inspection Requirements

Fire Hydrant Inspections & Testing

In the event of a fire, the availability of an adequate water supply is crucial. It can be a matter of life or death for buildings to have the water supply needed to suppress and extinguish a fire. Fire hydrants (sometimes referred to as “fireplugs” or just “plugs”) provide the water for fire department hoses to put out a fire. However, simply having plugs installed in strategic locations is not sufficient to ensure their effectiveness during emergencies. It is important to regularly inspect and test fire hydrants to help keep them operational.
This article delves into the importance of fire hydrant inspection and testing, highlighting their role in safeguarding lives and property from the devastating effects of fires.

Types of Fire Hydrants

Fire hydrants serve as vital infrastructure for firefighting operations. They provide a readily available and accessible water supply that enables firefighters to rapidly connect their hoses, delivering the necessary volume and pressure to combat fires effectively. They are typically connected to municipal water systems, ensuring a continuous flow of water for firefighting efforts, but this is not always the case. There are two main types: wet barrel and dry barrel hydrants.

  • Wet Barrel Hydrants – This type of hydrant is connected directly to the pressurized water source and the barrel is always filled with water.
  • Dry Barrel Hydrants –These hydrants are typically used in areas that get below-freezing temperatures. A main valve located below the ground separates the hydrant from the pressurized water supply, and the upper barrel section of the hydrant is dry.

Inspection & Testing Requirements for Fire Hydrants

These critical devices must be regularly inspected and tested to ensure their functionality and reliability when they are most needed. Inspection and testing procedures involve comprehensive assessments to determine their overall condition. Trained professionals conduct visual inspections to identify any signs of damage, corrosion, leaks, or other potential issues.

Additionally, flow tests are performed to measure water pressure and flow rates, ensuring they meet the necessary standards. These evaluations provide valuable insights into the hydrants’ maintenance requirements, enabling timely repairs, replacements, or upgrades as needed.

NFPA 291 requires that fire hydrant flow tests be performed every 5 years and fire hydrant inspections be performed annually. Fire hydrant inspections and testing should be performed by a licensed professional.

Annual Hydrant Inspections

Annual fire hydrant inspections check that hydrants are in proper working condition and verify that they are operational when they are needed. Some things that are checked during an annual inspection include:

  • Look for obstructions that could interfere with hydrant operation.
  • Check for cracked or missing caps.
  • Look for leaky or broken nozzles, gaskets, and valves.
  • Check for the correct above-ground hydrant height.
  • Determine if the hydrant needs to be painted.
  • Check for main valve leaks.
  • Check water flow using a pressure gauge.

After the fire hydrant inspection is performed, an inspection report must be filed with the proper local authorities. The inspection report should record all issues and repairs along with the static pressure reading, date, and time.

Hydrant Flow Tests

Fire hydrant flow tests are performed to determine the pressure and rate of flow available at various locations. These tests measure the static and residual pressure as well as the rate of discharge. The data from flow tests are used to uncover blockages or infrastructure problems in a water distribution system. Its use also includes properly designing fire sprinkler systems for commercial and residential buildings.

Fire Hydrant Testing

In a fire emergency, every second counts. A malfunctioning or damaged fire hydrant can cause significant delays in accessing an adequate water supply, leading to an escalation of the fire and potentially catastrophic consequences. Regular inspection and testing of a hydrant helps to identify and rectify any issues promptly, reducing the risk of failures during critical moments. By proactively ensuring the operational readiness, potential obstacles that could impede firefighting efforts can be mitigated, safeguarding both lives and property.

Fire hydrant testing and inspection not only address individual hydrant functionality but also contribute to the overall performance of the firefighting water supply system. By identifying and rectifying any shortcomings in the network, such as inadequate water pressure, low flow rates, or malfunctioning valves, the efficiency and effectiveness of the system as a whole can be significantly improved. Regular testing also helps maintain compliance with local fire codes and regulations, ensuring that the water supply meets the necessary standards for firefighting purposes.

Collaboration with Local Departments

Inspection and testing of fire hydrants are typically conducted in collaboration with local fire departments or relevant authorities. Firefighters and other emergency responders rely on accurate and up-to-date information about the location, condition, and performance within their jurisdiction. By maintaining a close working relationship between fire departments and inspection teams, comprehensive data can be collected and utilized to enhance emergency response strategies and optimize firefighting operations. This makes regular fire hydrant testing all the more important.

Commercial Kitchen Hood Suppression Systems

Commercial kitchens are at risk for fires from cooking operations. According to the NFPA, there was an estimated 7,410 structure fires in eating and drinking establishments from 2010 to 2014. 61% of these fires were caused by cooking equipment. Due to the many fire hazards present in commercial kitchens, it is especially important that these spaces have the proper fire suppression systems in place.

Why are Kitchen Hoods Needed?

Commercial kitchen hoods offer both fire protection and a more comfortable working environment. Kitchen hoods remove heat, steam, grease, and smoke from the air, creating a more pleasant environment as well as preventing kitchen fires. They are also typically equipped with an automatic wet chemical fire suppression system that are designed to suppress fires and contain them to the point of origin. Hood suppression systems are necessary because they protect the space from many fire hazards including ovens, broilers, fryers, cooking oils and more.

How Do Kitchen Hood Suppression Systems Work?

When the fire suppression system detects a fire in the kitchen, it will trigger the release of wet chemical extinguishing agents that are designed to smother the fire. However, as noted below, the failure to regularly clean the hood affect the ability of the fire suppression system to suppress the fire. The hood will also cut off the gas or energy supply to the appliance to help stop the fire. In a kitchen, water is not usually an effective way to put out a fire since grease fires typically spread when water is added. NFPA 96 requires commercial kitchens to have kitchen hood suppression systems that are equipped to handle grease fires.

Kitchen Hood Installation

Commercial kitchen hood suppression systems need to be installed by a qualified fire protection professional. The size and type of kitchen hood system installed is determined by the hazards present in your kitchen. Commercial kitchen hoods must be installed in accordance with manufacturer specifications and all relevant codes.

How Often Do Kitchen Hoods Need to be Inspected?

  • Monthly: On a monthly basis, the building owner or manager should perform a basic visual inspection of the kitchen hood. During this inspection, check for grease and clogs, damage to the nozzle caps and extinguishing lines, or anything that looks damaged.
  • Semi-annually: Every 6 months, a licensed fire protection professional must perform an inspection of your kitchen hood suppression system. During this inspection, your fire protection contractor will check the functionality of your fire suppression system and do a complete inspection of all the system’s components.

Kitchen Hood Cleaning

Commercial kitchen hood suppression systems should be cleaned regularly. If the system is not cleaned, grease will accumulate, and the suppression system may not work as it is designed. You should be cleaning your kitchen hood often, depending on the volume of your kitchen. Cleaning should be done weekly, monthly, or bi-monthly, or even daily if you have a high-volume kitchen.

Fire Protection Inspections: Things You Should Know

Things You Should Know About Fire Protection Inspections

If you are a property owner or a building manager, you should be aware for the need for inspections and testing of your fire protection systems. It can be hard to know the do’s and don’ts for taking care of your fire protection systems. Luckily, with the help of a fire protection contractor, taking care of your systems is simple.

Why Should I Get Inspections with a Fire Protection Contractor?

  • Inspections should be performed on regular schedule
  • Inspection and service multiyear contracts can give you discounts
  • Professional inspections allow your systems to keep operating properly
  • Inspections are required by the property insurer, and city regulations
  • Reduce the risk of business shutting down

What Components of Fire Protection Systems Need to be Inspected?

Inspections of your sprinkler systems include visual checks of all the sprinkler system components. Inspection frequency is dictated by NFPA 25.

  • Sprinkler heads
  • Control valves
  • Tamper switches
  • Signage
  • Fire dept connections
  • Caps

Things you Should Avoid Doing When It Comes to Inspections

  • Do NOT wait until you get an inspection letter from the city to get an inspection. Have your inspections performed in advance to avoid consequence such as fines or shutdowns.
  • Do NOT neglect inspections and maintenance if your building is empty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Your systems still need care and attention even if your building is not occupied.
  • Do NOT wait to schedule an inspection. Inspections should be scheduled in advance so your fire protection contractor can get it done when it is needed and when it fits your schedule.
  • Do NOT work on a live sprinkler system. Working on live systems is not only dangerous, but it could also cause flooding and costly damage to your property. If your sprinkler system needs repair or service, call your fire protection contractor.

What Maintenance Tasks Should Be Done by the Building Owner?

Although a fire protection professional needs to perform quarterly, annual, and 5-year inspections and testing, building owners are still responsible for some maintenance tasks. Performing maintenance and visual checks of your fire protection systems between visits by your contractor can help you catch issues with your system and prevent system failure and property damage. The building owner is responsible for:

  • Visual checks of sprinkler system valves to make sure they are open and allowing water flow to the sprinklers. Closed control valves are a cause of sprinkler system failure.
  • Make sure systems are free from obstruction: the building owner must make sure that all components of the fire protection system have clear access and are not obstructed.
  • Keep wet systems properly heated: It is the duty of the building owner to make sure that areas where there is a water filled pipe present are heated to a minimum of 40 degrees (F).
  • Signage: the building owner is responsible for making sure that there is proper signage placed at the system control riser

What Happens if You Don’t Prioritize Inspections?

Failing to perform inspections, testing and maintenance of fire sprinkler or fire protection systems can have devastating consequences. Some consequences of neglecting inspections include:

  • Leaking, rusty, and damaged components
  • Property damage due to false activation
  • Shortened system life span
  • Fines, penalties, or shutdowns due to not meeting regulations
  • Fire protection system failure
