🔥 Why 5-Yearly Fire Hydrant Testing Matters 🔥
Fire hydrants are one of the most critical parts of any fire protection system — but many building owners don’t realise they require mandatory 5-yearly testing under Australian Standards.
At Reddog Fire, we carry out full 5-yearly hydrant flow and pressure testing to make sure your system will actually perform when it’s needed most — during a real fire.
✅ Confirms adequate water flow and pressure
✅ Identifies hidden blockages, corrosion, or failing valves
✅ Ensures compliance with AS1851
✅ Helps protect lives, property, and your insurance coverage
Over time, pipework degrades, valves seize, and debris builds up. Without proper testing, you won’t know there’s a problem until it’s too late.
🚒 Reddog Fire specialises in complete fire protection solutions including:
• Fire hydrants
• Fire hose reels
• Fire panels & alarms
• Sprinkler systems
• EWIS
• Gas suppression
• Fire pumps
• Special hazards
• Installation, servicing & compliance
If your building is due (or overdue) for its 5-yearly hydrant test, now’s the time to act.
