When Should You Schedule a Fire Sprinkler Inspection?
Fire sprinkler systems typically require regular inspections to ensure they are compliant with regulations. Specific inspection requirements can vary depending on factor like building codes, occupancy type, and the type of sprinkler system installed. Here are some general guidelines:
Routine Inspections
These inspections are usually conducted on an annual or semi-annual basis. This inspection checks for any visible damage or issues with the sprinkler system, such as leaks, corrosion, or obstructions.
Quarterly Inspections
Some jurisdictions or building owners may require quarterly inspections for certain types of properties or occupancies. These inspections are more frequent and focus on specific components of the sprinkler system, such as control valves, alarm devices, or pressure gauges.
Five Year Inspections
A 5-year inspection is more comprehensive and involves examining the internal components of the sprinkler system, such as pipes, fittings, and sprinkler heads. It may also involve conducting flow tests to ensure the system’s water supply and pressure are adequate.
Hydrostatic Testing
Periodic hydrostatic testing is typically required for fire sprinkler systems. This involves pressurizing the system with water to test its strength and integrity. The frequency of hydrostatic testing can vary, but it is often performed every five to ten years.
