A fire hydrant system is the main fire fighting tool in large buildings and industrial sites. It gives trained staff and the fire brigade a reliable supply of water under pressure, through a network of pipes, hydrant valves and hoses, to control fires that are too big for extinguishers.

Cyber Group designs, supplies, installs, tests and maintains fire hydrant systems for factories, warehouses, hospitals, hotels, commercial complexes, residential towers and campuses across India. Our hydrant projects include Shayona and Naxcure.

Parts of a Fire Hydrant System

  • Fire water tank with the storage required for your building.
  • Fire pumps: main electric pump, diesel standby pump and jockey pump with controllers.
  • Ring main and risers sized by hydraulic calculation.
  • Internal hydrants and landing valves on each floor, with hoses and branch pipes.
  • Hose reels for first-aid fire fighting by staff.
  • External yard hydrants around buildings and plants.
  • Fire brigade inlet so the fire tender can pump water into the system.

Standards We Follow

Hydrant systems in India are designed with reference to IS 3844 (internal hydrants and hose reels), IS 13039 (external hydrant systems) and Part 4 of the National Building Code 2016, along with your local fire authority for the fire NOC.

Our Scope: Design to AMC

  1. Hazard study and design: water storage, pump sizing, pipe network and hydraulic calculations.
  2. Drawings for fire NOC approval.
  3. Supply and installation of pumps, piping, valves, hydrants and hose reels.
  4. Testing and commissioning: pressure and flow tests.
  5. Integration: pump status to the fire alarm and BMS.
  6. AMC: weekly pump runs, valve and hose checks and 24×7 support.

Hydrants work with fire sprinkler systems and extinguishers as part of a complete fire fighting system. Read our case studies on Shifa Hospital, Bhuj and Ajmera Arham, Malad.

Fire Hydrant System: FAQs

What is the difference between a hydrant and a hose reel?

A hose reel is a small hose for first-aid fire fighting by staff. A hydrant gives a much larger flow for trained staff and the fire brigade to fight bigger fires.

Which buildings need a fire hydrant system?

It depends on building type, height and area. NBC 2016 Part 4 and your local fire authority decide the requirement for the fire NOC.

Why do I need a diesel fire pump?

The diesel pump keeps water flowing if mains power fails during a fire.

How often should a hydrant system be tested?

Fire pumps are usually run weekly, and valves, hoses and pressures are checked regularly under the AMC.

Do you work outside Gujarat?

Yes. Our head office is in Ahmedabad and we deliver projects across India.
