Did you know that emergency services depend on fire hydrants to protect properties from fire damage and residents from harm? The water distribution system (WDS) also plays a crucial role in providing clean water for daily use. But, if hydrants and their connecting systems aren’t well-maintained, the WDS can experience serious functional issues that affect our access to clean water.

Don’t let the potential risks posed by electrolysis impact the safety and availability of water in your community. Take a proactive approach to maintaining your WDS!

Are you tired of unexpected costs, poor water quality and service interruptions? It's time to switch to a proactive maintenance approach! With a proactive strategy, you can increase the reliability of your WDS and reduce costs in the long run.

We've compared the costs of proactive vs reactive maintenance and found that reactive maintenance is far more expensive and increases the risk of contamination or disruption to service. Predictive maintenance, on the other hand, reduces downtime, strategically reduces costs, and improves the safety and performance of your WDS.

Some recommended proactive maintenance procedures include:

💧 Fire Flow Testing
💧 Valve Maintenance
💧 Uni-directional Flushing

By implementing these procedures, you can ensure your WDS complies with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) requirements and Provincial Fire Codes, improve your maintenance protocol, and reduce emergency calls.

Don't wait until it's too late! Invest in a proactive maintenance program today. Read more details on our blog - https://velocitywaterservices.ca/resources/blog/proactive-vs-reactive-wds-maintenance-a-comparison-of-cost-savings.html
