Waterway now testing hard suction hose
March 22, 2011
Waterway, the No.1 fire-hose and ground ladder testing company in America, is now able to offer vacuum testing for hard suction hoses in addition to its other annual NFPA testing services.
After running a pilot program in 2010, many of the franchisees will be offering this test in 2011 at selective locations where demand has been identified.
NFPA requires annual testing of hard suction hose in Standard 1962 Section 7.5. This test does not utilize pressure as in standard fire-hose testing but rather requires a dry vacuum test. This test will identify deficiencies in the hose including signs of physical damage, collapsing of the inner liner and holes, which produce air leaks
that can prohibit attaining a prime from draft.
Waterway, the only ISO certified hose testing company in the USA, which tests millions of feet in thousands of fire departments through its rapidly expanding owner/operated franchise network, now has the equipment, know-how and expertise to ensure the hard suction hose is ready when it's really needed.
Established in New Jersey 22 years ago, Waterway now has franchises on the East Coast, Texas, Florida and much of the Mid West but is still looking to expand its network of fire-fighter owned franchises.
