Fire Hydrants
A vital piece of firefighting equipment—only if it works when it is needed.
Fire hydrants are connected to an underground water main and supply the high-pressure water essential for extinguishing fires. Hydrants are also color-coded to assist firefighters in selecting the most suitable unit based on water flow and pressure levels.
While annual inspections and flow testing are standard, we recommend checking for leaks every fall and spring to ensure ongoing reliability. It’s equally important to keep hydrants clear of obstructions such as parked vehicles, vegetation, or snow buildup.
In addition to maintenance support, we offer professional fire hydrant painting services to help maintain visibility, comply with regulations, and extend the life of your equipment.
