Fire Hydrant Sign

The Fire Hydrant Sign provides clear and highly visible identification of the location of a fire hydrant, helping fire and rescue service personnel, site managers and authorised personnel quickly locate an essential firefighting water supply. Correctly positioned hydrant signage can be particularly important where the hydrant itself is below ground, positioned away from the normal line of sight or difficult to identify during an emergency.

Suitable for industrial estates, factories, warehouses, distribution centres, commercial developments, residential areas, car parks, hospitals, schools, airports and other locations where fire hydrants are installed, this sign provides a permanent visual reference to assist with hydrant identification.

Fire hydrants provide access to a water supply that can be used by the fire and rescue service during firefighting operations. Rapid identification can help emergency crews establish a water supply without unnecessary delay, particularly at larger sites or unfamiliar premises where several service covers and underground utilities may be present.

The Fire Hydrant Sign helps distinguish firefighting water supplies from other utility access points and site infrastructure. It can be positioned close to the hydrant or at an appropriate visible location where it clearly indicates the hydrants position.

Where hydrants are located below ground, signage can be especially useful when the hydrant cover is obscured by parked vehicles, vegetation, leaves, snow, dirt or other temporary conditions. The area around the hydrant should therefore be kept clear and accessible so that emergency crews can reach and operate it when required.

Fire hydrant identification is also useful for routine inspection, testing and maintenance. Clearly marked hydrants can be located more efficiently by facilities personnel, contractors and engineers responsible for ensuring firefighting water supplies remain available and serviceable.

The Fire Hydrant Sign can form part of a wider fire safety identification system alongside Fire Hydrant Keep Clear signs, Fire Brigade Inlet signs, Dry Riser Inlet signs, Wet Riser signs and other notices identifying equipment and facilities intended to support fire and rescue service operations.

Where a hydrant identification plate includes specific numbers or measurements, these should accurately correspond with the associated hydrant and installation. Information should not be added or altered unless the correct details have been established for the particular hydrant.

Hydrants and associated access points should remain unobstructed and clearly identifiable. Vehicles, stored materials, waste containers, temporary structures or other objects should not prevent emergency access to the hydrant or obscure essential identification signage.

Fire hydrants should be appropriately inspected and maintained in accordance with the arrangements applicable to the installation. Signage should also be checked periodically and replaced if it becomes damaged, faded, obscured or difficult to read.

Manufactured from durable, high quality materials with excellent print clarity and visibility, the Fire Hydrant Sign provides a professional and long lasting solution for identifying an important firefighting water supply. It helps improve hydrant visibility, support inspection and maintenance procedures and assist fire and rescue service personnel in quickly locating essential firefighting facilities during an emergency.
