Product Detail

The stand pipe system (supplying the fire hoses) must provide adequate water supply and pressure. It will create a hydraulic demand, in terms of flow and pressure, on the water supply. The supply must be capable of meeting this demand. Otherwise, supplemental components such as a fire pump must be added to the system.

Fire Pump - Stand Pipe - Hydrants
