Standpipe Systems Maintenance

The Standpipe Systems Maintenance course provides students with an in-depth understanding of the design, function, and maintenance requirements of standpipe systems used in buildings for firefighting operations. This course is based on the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards and New York City Fire Department (FDNY) regulations that ensure the safety and readiness of these critical life-safety systems.

Students will learn how to perform regular inspections, testing, and maintenance to keep standpipe systems in compliance with local codes. The course also covers the operation of Class I, II, and III standpipe systems, identification of system components, pressure regulation, and emergency response procedures. Participants will gain the technical skills and legal knowledge required to maintain system integrity and protect both building occupants and first responders during emergencies.

What you will learn in this course:

RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUILDING OWNER: It shall be the building owner’s responsibility to maintain the standpipe system and to determine the individual qualifications and competencies of the COF holder that performs the functions related to inspection, testing and maintenance of such standpipe system.
