About

Departments often plan annual equipment checks around staffing, training calendars, and apparatus availability, so testing that fits into a normal duty day is valuable. NFPA 1962 hose testing establishes pressure, leakage, and coupling criteria, and a computerized process records each step for consistent results that can be compared year over year. Before testing begins, crews stage hose by length and diameter, confirm labeling is legible, and set aside sections needing visual repairs, which speeds the workflow. After data is captured, barcoded reports help supply officers track inventory, rotate loads, and forecast replacement. A fire hose testing company that can also assess nozzles and appliances in the same visit reduces extra handling and returns equipment to service sooner. Ground ladders are typically scheduled in a separate cadence under NFPA 1932, though some agencies align dates to streamline documentation. From its headquarters in Troy, MI, FireCatt serves municipal, industrial, and federal sites nationwide with organized, on-site processes designed for busy operations.
