Why Is Regular Fire Hydrant Testing Critical for My Facility?
Pressure Failures during Emergencies
Hydrants delivering reduced capacity during critical moments can delay firefighter response and escalate minor incidents into catastrophic facility losses.
Frozen or Corroded Systems
BC's harsh winters can cause hydrant barrel freezing and valve corrosion, rendering them useless when firefighters need immediate water access.
What Should I Expect During Fire Hydrant Installation Projects?
Trig Piping installs fire hydrants engineered for our climate and your facility's specific demands. We assess water main pressure, soil conditions, and fire code requirements for hospitals, schools, manufacturing plants, commercial developments, and other types of properties.
Our installations include proper burial depth to prevent freezing, corrosion-resistant materials for longevity, and strategic placement for optimal emergency access. We coordinate with municipal water systems and conduct flow testing to verify each hydrant meets NFPA standards.
From pulp mills requiring high-volume capability to multifamily residential projects needing code-compliant coverage, we deliver hydrant systems that perform reliably when lives and property hang in the balance during critical fire events.
