Hydraulic Models, Fire Flow Tests, and Your Home Insurance
The Public Protection Classification (PPC) is used as an input in determining home insurance cost, and the available fire flow is an important input in determining the PPC.
To determine a water system's available fire flow, either hydrant flow tests or hydraulic modeling can be used to calculate water main capacity.
Each method has its pros and cons, and familiarity with each enables the engineer to select the best approach.
