Manual Firefighting Water Supplies Checklist

This checklist helps facilities and risk managers verify the adequacy and reliability of manual firefighting water supplies. It covers hazard classification, building construction factors, hydrant coverage and spacing, water supply testing, required flow and duration by occupancy, record keeping and retesting, alternative water sources such as tanks and open water, and coordination with public fire authorities. It also prompts for an emergency response plan and monitoring of site changes that may affect water demand. Aligned with the Aviva Loss Prevention Standard V1.0.
