A fire hydrant system is a type of hydraulic fire safety system that comprises a series of pipes and components including a water supply and fire hydrant (landing) valves with sufficient pressure and flow delivered through pipes throughout a building to a strategically located network of valves that is dedicated for fire-fighting purposes.
Fire Hydrant Systems are crucial for providing a reliable water source to combat fires, particularly in buildings and industrial areas. They are designed to deliver pressurized water through a network of pipes and hydrants to fire engines or directly onto fires. These systems are typically connected to a dedicated water tank and are designed to meet specific flow and pressure requirements as outlined in the National Building Code or respective applicable fire safety regulations.
