[ Get a Quote ](https://www.certasitepro.com/contact-us) The fire pump is at the heart of larger water-based fire suppression systems. In extensive fire sprinkler systems, the regular water supply is likely to be inadequate to maintain enough pressure to keep the water flowing in order to fight a fire. It is the fire pump which provides enough water to keep the pressure up and keep the water flowing at the necessary rate to be effective.   The fire pump connects directly to the underground public supply of water or to a private storage tank and can then pump this water directly into where it is needed in an emergency at the rate that is required.   Fire pumps are critical in large buildings where the main form of fire suppression is water based or uses an interconnected system, such as in high rises and warehouses.   ##### **Inspection Cycles**  Fire pumps need to be routinely maintained by a preferred fire protection company. Depending on the type of fire pump, inspections vary from a weekly, monthly, or annual basis. All fire pumps need the following inspections at a minimum.  ##### **Weekly**  - Pump house, heating, ventilating louvers  - Electrical systems  ##### **Monthly**  - Pump operation  ##### **Annual**  - Full flow test  - Fire pump alarm signals  ##### **Common Deficiencies**  A deficiency is identified during regular inspections when the devices and components do not meet acceptable standards. Here are a few commonly found deficiencies for fire pumps:   - Leakage  - Fire pump motor overheating  - No water flow   - Abnormal vibration  ##### **Related Products**   - Backflow Devices   - Emergency & Exit Lighting   - Fire Extinguishers   - Fire Sprinkler Systems   - Fire Suppression Systems   - Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems   - Monitoring   - Security   - First Aid   ##### **Related Services**   - Inspection & Maintenance   - System Installations   - Repair   ###### Products and Services If it has to do with protecting your workplace against fires and other catastrophic events, we probably sell it.
