NFPA 1142 2022 is the official standard for ensuring water supply readiness in suburban, rural, and remote locations where fire hydrants are not available. It provides fire departments, safety planners, and municipalities with clear, performance-based guidance to develop effective water supply systems using static or alternative sources.
This edition focuses on practical solutions like ponds, tanks, cisterns, and dry hydrants to support fire suppression operations in non-urban zones. It includes updated calculation methods for determining needed water volumes and flow rates, site planning strategies, and safety requirements for tanker refill operations.
Whether you're managing emergency response in small towns, agricultural zones, or developing communities, this code ensures your team has the resources to act quickly and effectively. NFPA 1142 is not only a compliance standard but also a strategic planning tool.
