FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is an S-13 Certificate of Fitness?

It's the FDNY certification required to inspect and test standpipe systems in New York City. Our technicians hold it.

How often does a standpipe system need testing?

Standpipe systems have regular inspections plus periodic hydrostatic and flow tests on multi-year cycles. We track each requirement and schedule the work before it's due.

Can you test standpipes and sprinklers in one visit?

In many cases, yes. Combining visits saves time and keeps your records in one place.

Is your standpipe test coming due?

We'll schedule it and document the results for your records.
