About this file

This is a National Park Service Inspection and Test Report form for fire pump systems used by the Alaska Regional Office (AKRO).

The form documents the inspection and testing of fire pump systems (both residential and commercial pumps) in accordance with NFPA 20 and NFPA 25 standards. It captures detailed information about the system being tested, including pump make/model, controller make/model, park location, and test date/time. The inspection covers six primary system categories: water storage tanks, electric-driven pumps, diesel-driven pumps, pump controllers, flow tests at rated capacity, transfer switches, and system monitoring. For water storage tanks, technicians verify water levels, heating functionality, structural integrity, and valve operations. For electric-driven pumps, testing includes automatic start capability, pressure readings during no-flow conditions, packing gland adjustments, relief valve operation, and minimum 10-minute runtime verification. Diesel-driven pump testing is more extensive, requiring verification of automatic start, pressure readings, fuel and oil levels, battery voltage, fuel filter servicing, minimum 30-minute runtime, diesel fuel degradation testing per NFPA 25, cooling water levels, and temperature maintenance above 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Flow testing at rated capacity documents GPM and PSI readings at minimum, rated, and 150% rated flows using approved test devices (hoses/Pitot tube, FM flowmeter, or diffuser/Hosemonster). Transfer switch testing verifies automatic and manual activation during peak flow conditions. The form includes sections for documenting deficiencies with recommended resolutions and NFPA code references, and requires the certifying technician's name, company, signature, state certification number, and NICET number.
