Pump won’t start? Call 548-888-FIRE.

What NFPA 25 (2017) requires

No-flow (churn) testWeekly for diesel pumps, monthly for most electric pumps. Can be done by trained building staff or by us on a program.
Annual flow testPump flowed at churn, 100% and 150% of rated capacity, with the curve plotted against the nameplate. Done by us.
Controller and transfer switchChecked at every annual. Tornatech controllers serviced; parts are special order, so we give you the lead time with the quote.

Under the Ontario Fire Code the owner is responsible for these tests being done and recorded. We keep the records in your portal.

The annual flow test, documented

You get the curve. A pass mark on its own says nothing about next year. Three test points plotted against the nameplate, controller and alarm checks, and a note on anything trending the wrong way. Report in your inbox within 24 hours.

Have last year’s numbers? Run them through our Flow Test Calculator.

Fire pump room with a pressure gauge, valves and a red controller cabinet.

Churn tests, done for you

No staff to run the pump every week? We run it, log it and flag anything that changes, as part of a service agreement.

When a pump fails the test

A failed test puts the building on impairment. We walk you through the impairment steps, notify who needs notifying with you, and have a priced repair to you within 48 hours. Finding it on a Tuesday with us on site beats finding it during a fire.

Questions

How long does a fire pump last?

Twenty to twenty-five years with maintenance. Frequent breakdowns or pressure problems before that usually mean a component, not the pump.

Can you add a fire pump to an existing building?

Yes, as a retrofit, designed to NFPA 20. We will tell you first whether the water supply actually needs one.

What is in the annual report?

The flow curve, controller and alarm results, component condition, and a priced list of anything that needs attention.

What if the pump fails in an emergency?

Call 548-888-FIRE. A technician is dispatched within two hours, day or night.
