Can fire-fighting water be used as other water?

Fire-fighting equipment must not be used for other purposes. Although fire-fighting water is not necessarily equipment, my personal feeling is that it cannot be used for other purposes. However, a small amount that can be replenished in a short period of time can be used appropriately, and the scale should be controlled by yourself (reminder: If something happens, the responsibility is relatively large).

It shouldn't work. This is for water only.

Can. When a fire-fighting pool is built together with a factory-wide life or production safety pool, technical measures should be taken to ensure that the fire-fighting water is not used for other purposes. ； When an accident occurs in a certain ring section, the remaining ring sections of the independent fire water supply pipeline should be able to pass 100% of the fire water consumption ； Fire water supply pipes used for production and domestic use should be able to pass 100% of the fire water and 70% of the total production and domestic water. ； Production and domestic water consumption should be calculated based on the second flow rate of 70% of the maximum hourly water use ； Fire water consumption should be calculated based on the maximum second flow rate. Fire hydrants installed on fire water supply pipelines used for production or domestic use should be equipped with cut-off valves. When the maintenance of fire hydrants allows water to be cut off, it does not need to be installed.

It depends. In many places, fire water systems are often built together with domestic water systems. In this case, there is no difference between fire water and domestic water, but fire hydrants must not be used casually in non-emergency situations. There are also some places, such as high-rise buildings with special fire protection systems, and the user must ensure sufficient fire water sources and must not use them for other purposes.

What do you mean by using the fire water in other places? 1. Use the fire protection system pipelines for other functions---never. 2. Use water from the fire-fighting water reservoir---as long as your water replenishment system is automatically controlled by Lic and the water source is replenished in time, there is no problem. It's tap water!

Can fire-fighting water be used as other water? What does it mean? Fire water systems are generally built together with domestic water systems, and there is no difference between fire water and domestic water. Fire-fighting equipment must not be used for other purposes, that is, fire-fighting water cannot be used for other purposes.

Why not? The main thing is to consider the dosage when designing. We merge fire water and production water into one pipe network, which can simplify the design of the pipe network.

Before answering the poster’s question, let’s list the relevant regulations as follows:: GB50016-2006 "Code for Fire Protection Design of Buildings": 8.1.2 During the planning and architectural design of cities, residential areas, factories, warehouses, etc., the fire water supply system must be designed at the same time. Municipal fire hydrants should be installed in cities and residential areas. Outdoor fire hydrants should be installed in civil buildings, factories (warehouses), storage tanks (areas), and storage yards. Civil buildings and factories (warehouses) should be equipped with indoor fire hydrants and should comply with the provisions of Article 8.3.1 of this code. Fire-fighting water can be supplied by the urban water supply network, natural water sources or fire-fighting pools. When using natural water sources, the guarantee rate should not be less than 97%, and reliable water intake facilities should be installed. 8.1.4 The building’s low-pressure outdoor fire water supply system can be combined with the production and domestic water supply pipeline systems. In the combined water supply pipeline system, when production and domestic water reaches the maximum hourly water consumption (shower water consumption can be calculated as 15%, water consumption for sprinkling and washing is not included in the calculation), the entire fire-fighting water consumption should still be guaranteed. If no production accident occurs, production water can be used as fire-fighting water, but the number of valves that convert production water to fire-fighting water should not exceed 2. The valve should be set up in a place that is easy to operate and should be clearly marked. 8.4.2 The layout of indoor fire water supply pipes should comply with the following regulations: 7. Indoor pipelines that share fire water with other water should still be able to ensure the supply of all fire water when other water reaches the maximum hourly flow rate. ； 8 For municipal water supply pipe networks that allow direct water absorption, when the water consumption for production and domestic use reaches the maximum and can still meet the indoor and outdoor fire water consumption, the fire pump should directly absorb water from the municipal water supply pipe network. ； 8.6.1 If one of the following provisions is met, a fire pool should be installed: 1 When production and domestic water consumption reaches the maximum, municipal water supply pipes, water inlet pipes or natural water sources cannot meet the indoor and outdoor fire water consumption. ； GB5016-2008 "Code for Fire Protection Design of Petrochemical Enterprises" 8.3.1 When fire-fighting water is directly supplied from the factory water source, there should be no less than two water inlet pipes in the factory water supply network. When an accident occurs on one of them, the other should be able to meet 100% of the fire water and 70% of the total production and domestic water requirements. When fire-fighting water is supplied from a fire-fighting pool (tank), the water inlet pipe of the factory's water supply pipe network should be able to meet the requirements for supplementary water to the fire-fighting pool (tank) and 100% of the total production and domestic water volume. From the relevant provisions of the above two specifications, it can be seen that fire-fighting water is generally taken from production and domestic water, and there is no requirement to set up an independent fire-fighting water system. Therefore, under normal circumstances, fire-fighting water and production water share a water source. Therefore, fire-fighting water can be used as production and domestic water, that is, other water, but the premise is that when other water reaches the maximum hourly flow, the supply of all fire-fighting water should still be guaranteed. When this cannot be met, a fire pool should be installed to ensure it! This post was last edited by lyhh9024 on 2009-4-7 11:04 ]

OK. The key depends on whether you consider the combined use of fire water, cooling water, and spray water when designing. ； If it is not considered, it needs to be calculated. If the water volume can meet the fire water supply, it can be combined with other water supplies. Otherwise, it will not work. Our company's fire water is shared with water sprinklers.

The key depends on what it is used for. I think it should be ok to produce cooling circulating water.

In petrochemical companies: Fire-fighting water cannot be used for other purposes. No matter how it is stipulated in the regulations, 1. Pipe network, it is said that 100% of fire-fighting water consumption should be guaranteed. What is emphasized is that fire-fighting water cannot be combined with domestic and production water, but fire-fighting water must be guaranteed. (Petrochemical Regulations 7.3.12) 2. When fire-fighting pools are built together with domestic or production pools, it should also be ensured that fire-fighting water is not used for other purposes. (Petrochemical Regulations 7.3.24) ————New version “8.51, Fire water supply system shall not be combined with circulating cooling water and shall not be used for other purposes. ”

This is possible as long as fire-fighting water is ensured

Fire water should be used as other water.

Yes, provided it meets fire protection requirements.

Sprinklers can be used from the fire water circulation system, depending on how it is designed. In addition, even if it cannot be used according to the theoretical design, it can be used as long as timely replenishment of water can be ensured. Of course safety comes first.
