NFPA 25 Fire Pump Workshop

Hands-on Training in the AFSA Lab

The NFPA 25 Fire Pump Workshop provides ITM technicians, facility managers, and AHJs with a practical understanding of fire pump installations and associated ITM requirements. Students explore the differences between diesel and electric fire pumps, perform no-flow and full-flow pump tests, and review NFPA 25 tank requirements.

Hands-on activities include data acquisition, supply graphing, energy diffuser selection, and performance interpretation. The class does not include manufacturer-specific tasks such as packing, alignment, or controller entry.

These NFPA 25 ITM fundamentals prepare participants for the NICET Inspection & Testing of Water-Based Systems certification exams, provide prep for the NFPA Water-Based Inspector (WBITM) credential, and support readiness for other industry credentialing tests.

Note: This class does not teach manufacturer-specific maintenance requirements such as repacking, aligning, and appropriate grouting. This class will cover basic electrical safety; however, it will not include entering a controller as it is not within the scope of ITM practices.
