1-Day Seminar - Friday

Seminars begin promptly at 8:00 AM and end at 4:30 PM.

When automatic sprinkler systems don't perform up to expectations, it is almost always due to human error. Among these errors are poor maintenance, failure to keep the system appropriate to the hazard, and failure to provide for other aspects of building fire protection. This seminar is designed from an inspector's approach, working from the outside of a building to the inside, and then through the building's systems.

Upon completion you should be able to:

• Locate and explain the scope, purpose, definitions and reporting requirements of the 2008 edition of NFPA 25
• Recognize the requirements and procedures for the inspection, testing, and maintenance of private service mains, common valve components, system valves, and sprinkler and standpipe systems.
• Plot flow test results to determine causes of water supply problems
• Evaluate system test data
• Differentiate between the types of storage tanks and their inspection and safety concerns
• Identify water spray, foam-water, and foam-water spray systems
• Restore obstructed piping
• Recognize the importance of having a procedure to deal with system impairment
