NFPA 25: Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems 2008 - Softcover
Synopsis
The 2008 NFPA 25 offers the most advanced rules for the care of fire sprinkler systems, standpipe and hose systems, fire pumps, fire service piping and appurtenances, water storage tanks, fixed water spray, foam-water, and valves. Provisions also address impairment handling and reporting. While the 2002 Standard edition included performance-based testing on a limited basis in the "equivalency" option, the 2008 NFPA 25 includes practical guidance on how to implement and monitor the process, subject to AHJ approval. You’ll find advice on what variables to take into account when adjusting frequencies...which factors to consider in the transition to a performance-based test program...and how to establish a failure rate, complete with suggested calculation methods and examples.
