What role do jockey pumps play in maintaining fire pump system readiness?

2024-06-21

 - Pressure Maintenance: Jockey pumps maintain system pressure, preventing unnecessary start-ups of the main fire pump due to minor leaks or pressure drops.
- System Integrity: By keeping the system pressurized, jockey pumps ensure that the fire protection system is always ready to respond immediately.
- Cost Efficiency: Reducing wear and tear on the main fire pump by minimizing its operation frequency, thus extending the life of the main pump.
- Leak Detection: Assisting in detecting small leaks within the fire protection system, as frequent jockey pump cycles can indicate potential issues.
