Can Fire Pumps Be Used in Residential Applications?

Fire sprinkler systems are hydraulically calculated prior to installation to determine adequate water flow and in order to ensure the system can reliably suppress a fire until fire crews arrive. When it’s determined inadequate flow is available from a municipal supply for the system to operate effectively, a fire pump is installed. The fire pump operates when the sprinkler system pressure drops below a certain threshold, due to the operation of sprinkler heads. The fire pump draws additional water from the municipal water supply or on site storage tanks, to maintain the sprinkler systems required operating pressure. Fire pumps are often required in high rise construction and large area buildings, due to the size of piping systems and pressure loss.

The pump casing of the electric pump of the fire pump set can be made of cast iron or stainless steel, the impeller can be made of copper impeller, the flow head, pressure or other parameters of the diesel pump are the same as those of the electric pump, and the diesel engine is connected to the pump head through a coupling. The jockey pump is a vertical pump, and its technical parameters are different from those of electric or diesel pumps. Generally, the lift is higher than that of electric and diesel pumps, and can be customized.

Common accessories include:
Control Panels: For monitoring and operation.
Pressure Relief Valves: To prevent overpressure situations.
Hose Reels and Cabinets: For easy access during emergencies.
Flow Meters: To monitor water flow rates.
Jockey Pumps: For maintaining pressure in the system.

When the water supply doesn’t have enough pressure, a fire pump can be an excellent solution to the problem, as long as the pump is sized correctly. The fire pump is selected by five factors: liquid delivery volume, device lift, liquid properties, pipeline layout and operating conditions.

Strategies include:

Water Recycling: Implement systems to recycle water used during pump testing, minimizing wastage.
Eco-Friendly Testing Methods: Use methods that reduce water consumption, such as flow meters that simulate flow conditions without discharging large volumes of water.
Regular Maintenance: Keep the pump in good working order to reduce the frequency and duration of testing needed.
Environmental Monitoring: Monitor and manage the environmental impact of testing activities, ensuring compliance with local environmental regulations and standards.

Fire pump impellers typically have a single- or double-suction design, with the latter being more common. They are usually made of cast bronze, cast iron, or stainless steel and are designed to operate at high pressures and temperatures. The impeller blades are typically curved to provide optimal flow and pressure, and the hub is designed to ensure a secure fit on the motor shaft. The impeller shape and size, as well as the number of blades, are designed to provide an optimal flow rate and pressure for the application.

In cold climates, jockey pumps must be designed and installed with specific considerations to prevent freezing and ensure reliable operation. This includes using heat tracing or insulation on piping and pump components exposed to low temperatures to prevent ice formation that could block water flow. Jockey pumps may also be housed in heated enclosures or indoor pump rooms to maintain a consistent temperature around the equipment. Additionally, the selection of antifreeze solutions or special materials resistant to cold temperatures can help protect the pump from damage. Regular monitoring and maintenance are also essential to ensure that the jockey pump remains operational and that the fire protection system is always ready to respond, even in harsh winter conditions.
