In South Carolina, FLOW leads with two services: underwater ROV inspection of fire protection water tanks and fire hydrant flow testing. Hotels, resorts, coastal condominium towers, campuses, and industrial sites use both. Q&A version: South Carolina Fire System Testing FAQ.
ROV tank inspection, with the tank in service
A pilot flies an underwater rover (a remotely operated vehicle, or ROV) inside the tank and records the interior on video. The tank stays full and in service, so the fire protection water supply stays available. NFPA 25 Chapter 9 sets interior inspection intervals by tank type; confirm the edition your AHJ has adopted. Details: fire water tank inspection and underwater rover (ROV) tank inspection.
Fire hydrant flow testing
FLOW flows the hydrant, records static, residual, and pitot readings, and produces and sends its own report. Owners and designers use it for sprinkler design data, private hydrant testing under NFPA 25, or a water-supply check before a project. See fire hydrant flow tests and the hydrant flow test calculator.
Standpipe flow testing on request
Standpipe flow testing in SC is available on request. Text 804-426-1226. For what applies to your building, check with your local AHJ and confirm the adopted NFPA 25 edition.
Hospitality scheduling
We schedule hotels and resorts in shoulder season or off-peak windows and plan around your occupancy calendar. An ROV tank inspection keeps the tank full and in service, and hydrant flow testing stays outdoors where the site allows.
