Wet Riser Pump System Test Checklist

This weekly wet riser pump system test checklist helps facilities teams maintain fire protection readiness and compliance. Steps include inspecting the water storage tank and level indicators, confirming ball valve operation, and checking access safety. In the pump house, confirm it is clear of storage and that temperatures remain within specified limits. For the jockey pump and electric pumps, simulate pressure reduction to verify automatic cut-in pressures, then restore valves to normal. Run the electric pump, verify visual and audible alarms at remote panels, and test manual start and stop from the controller. Record observations and sign-off to document maintenance and ensure building safety.
