Fire Suppression Tanks for Non-Dwelling Properties

Many agricultural properties are in areas away from a mains water supply or suffer from insufficient water pressure to enable the effective fighting of the fire. A high percentage of these properties do not have the benefit of a borehole, a stream, a river or standing water nearby either and are therefore obliged to seek alternative water resources.

Section 15 of Approved Document B deals with Fire Mains and Hydrants and subsection 15.8 specifically states,

“Where no piped water supply is available, or there is insufficient pressure and flow in the water main, or an alternative arrangement is proposed, the alternative source of supply should be provided in accordance with the following recommendations:

• a charged static water tank of at least 45,000 litres capacity; or
• a spring, river, canal, or pond capable of providing or storing at least 45,000 litres of water at all times of the year, to which access, space and hard standing are available for a pumping appliance: or
• any other means of providing a water supply for fire-fighting operations considered appropriate by the fire and rescue authority”.
