This document is an Annual Water-Based Fire Protection Systems Inspection report for Cardozo High School in Washington, DC, conducted by National Fire Protection, LLC on 12/14/2023. The inspection was performed in accordance with NFPA 25 Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems (2017 edition). The report details a comprehensive examination of the facility's fire pump system, including an electric motor-driven fire pump located in the basement fire pump room, with a focus on verifying the operational status and performance of critical fire protection infrastructure.

The inspection report comprehensively documents multiple system checks, including valve positions, pressure gauge readings, pump performance metrics, and operational tests. Key findings include passing assessments for pump suction and discharge pressures, controller functionality, alarm conditions, and overall system integrity. Specific technical details include a pump starting pressure of 130 PSI, system suction pressure of 65 PSI while running, and a pump speed of 1,798 RPM. The report also includes a liability release statement acknowledging the limited scope of the visual inspection and routine testing, with the inspection performed for RWD Consulting at the Cardozo High School location.
