The Coursework On Fire Hydrant Training And Maintenance

By Tanisha Berg


In the building of cities and towns, nowadays, it has become a requirement for water outlets be constructed and located easily in case of infernos. They are fitted on pavements and are used in cases of flame emergencies by servicemen. They are fixed by local authorities and are determinants of the shape and look of the city. Regular monitoring and maintenance is vital as well as fire hydrant training in prepared fro such emergencies.

Students or trainees who undertake this course have to be trained on various things including dealing with maintenance of the equipment as well as the techniques of storage of water pipes. Other important safety procedures must also be taught in the course too. They get trained on how to handle different vales, their functioning as well as how they are manufactured. This maintenance course is mainly based on how to repair such tools and how valves function.

In most cases, this coursework is divided into some sections for easier learning. One of such sections is the pressure monitoring which generally entails location of all valves. It also entails checking on the pressure of valves. The maintenance bit entails checking whether all the valves are function appropriately and repairing pipes when need arises. Other sections of this coursework include the operating practices when there is an inferno.

Trainees have to learn the turn on and off water valves. They do the construction of grade lines bit in groups so that they enhance their team work skills. Team work skills are essential when dealing with inferno. They also check on how to mount pressure to minimum and maximum heights. They practice such skills on open grounds and they have to shape storage tanks and raise them.

Most course work is covered in weeks. Participants are therefore encouraged to carefully follow up the course programs. Accident handling is done in this course work. The examination of the quality of valves is checked and each manufacturer is identified before use. Skills are offered on the importance of flushing programs and each flushing distribution line in the city is clearly identified.

Operators are required to examine the entire distribution functioning of water pipes. The main maps are used in locating each water supply in towns in that they monitor dead end mains and low areas used by water pipes. Flushing programs are meant to maintain the entire flushing system. Proper record maintenance and interpretation of maps in different cities is also emphasized.

Original manufacturers of valves are engaged in training programs. This is to ensure that they offer knowledge on the functioning of water valves in times of flame emergencies. Participants are put through the manufacturing processes as well as oriented on material used in manufacture of pipes. They give time saving techniques and safe operation of pipes.

This is a course that also involves using customized measures on water maintenance for pipes where water passes through. They review post indicator valves. All these aspects are taught to trainees and participants to equip them with relevant knowledge on how to save lives during an inferno.
