Safety Starts with Precision
We don’t take shortcuts when it comes to fire service plumbing. We work to current standards, use approved materials, and make sure every connection is tested for pressure, flow, and reliability.

From fire hydrants and hose reels to valve assemblies and pipework, everything is fitted to perform under pressure—and stay in top condition with regular servicing. Fire protection is only effective if it works when you need it. We’ll make sure your fire service plumbing is ready, reliable, and fully certified.
What does fire service plumbing include?
Fire service plumbing covers the installation and maintenance of fire protection systems like hydrants, hose reels, sprinklers, valves, and dedicated fire water lines. It also includes pressure testing, backflow prevention, and compliance checks to ensure the system meets current fire safety codes. These systems are often required in commercial and multi-residential buildings and must be installed by licensed plumbers familiar with Australian Standards (AS2419, AS2118, etc.).
Do I need regular testing for fire service plumbing?
Yes. Fire service plumbing must be tested at regular intervals to remain compliant and functional. Testing includes pressure checks, flow rate testing, valve operation, and ensuring all components are free of corrosion or damage. Depending on the property type, these inspections may be required annually, semi-annually, or more often. Failure to maintain your system can result in fines and increased risk in an emergency.
Can I install fire fittings myself?
No. Fire service plumbing must be installed by a licensed professional who understands the regulations, system requirements, and testing procedures involved. These systems are considered essential safety measures, and incorrect installation can lead to legal liability and dangerous outcomes. Always hire a qualified plumber to ensure your fire fittings are safe, effective, and compliant.
