fire water reserve
The fire flow rates required by the protected spaces and the required working time are evaluated; It is based on the net reserve available to the pump instead of the total nominal volume.

Fire Water Tank and Pump Supply Project
Reinforced concrete and panel fire water reservoir, usable water volume, pump suction line, level indicator, motorized filling valve and overflow safety.
Project Documents
Calculation, equipment and scope of delivery
Project assumptions on which the required reserve is based in fire water tank operation, pump suction geometry, low-high level warnings, filling valve, overflow path, drainage and access layout are described with separate drawings and equipment lists.
- fire water reserve
- Pump suction geometry
- Tank type and maintenance
- Filling and level automation
- Overflow and discharge
- Acceptance and operation
Depending on the type of project, quantity surveying, technical specifications, test procedure and as-built drawings are also included in the scope of work.
Standardization and Security
Technical conditions and important notices
Whether domestic water can consume the fire reserve is the critical issue of the project safety strategy. It is not safe to just look at the tank volume without ensuring sufficient suction of the pump.
The current BYKHY, relevant product and system standards, manufacturer conformity certificates and authorized administration/fire department opinions are verified at the beginning of the design. Fixed flow/pressure/capacity values are not declared without project data.
Technical Project Request →Discovery inputs and engineering deliverables
In the Fire Water Tank study, the following information available can be shared in the first meeting. Field detection or additional calculation requirements for missing data are determined separately. Preparation of documents does not automatically guarantee acceptance by the relevant institution or a particular test result.
| Startup entry | Output to be defined in the proposal |
|---|---|
| System water demand and design scenario | Available reserve assessment |
| Warehouse geometry and usable level | Suction, filling and level arrangement |
| Pump suction, filling and operating conditions | Equipment list and field coordination notes |
Frequently asked questions
How to prepare a quote for Fire Water Tank?
System water demand and design scenario are shared along with the facility's district, usage type and desired service. Account, project, application and test items are separated in the written scope.
What happens if the suction or level pattern of the water tank changes?
When the compartment changes in the tank, the position of the suction port, the automation connection or the filling capacity are revised, the available reserve, suction continuity and level warning scenario are reviewed. The current drawing is matched with the equipment on site.
What documents are submitted?
Usable reserve assessment, suction, filling and level layout and other documents included in the scope of work are delivered. The file format and revision scope are determined at the outset.
Is the nominal volume of the tank the same as the usable reserve?
No. The water tank evaluation is linked to the reserve required by the fire system and the suction conditions of the pump. However, the total volume on the tank label does not give the same design result.
Are implementation and control the same scope?
Project planning, assembly, field inspection and testing tasks are defined separately. The proposal states which party is responsible for which work.
From which regions do you receive requests for exploration?
Requests from Çorlu, Ergene, Kapaklı and Tekirdağ are evaluated from our Çerkezköy center. The time and conditions of the field visit are decided separately.
