SUMMARY:Proposed Updates to NFPA 13R\, 13D
DESCRIPTION:NFPA 13R\, the Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems in Low-Rise Residential Buildings\, and NFPA 13D\, the Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems in One- and Two-Family Dwellings\, are currently in cycle for the 2025 edition. This webinar will discuss the significant changes proposed for each document\, including correlating definitions among all three sprinkler installation standards\, a reorganization of NFPA 13D to correct extraneous sections and requirements added over several revision cycles\, and new language to help the user apply hydraulic calculation requirements. \nLearning Objectives: \n1.    Identify definitions in Chapter 3 that were modified to correlate with all sprinkler installation standards\n2.    Determine when NFPA 24 or the local plumbing code needs to be used for the installation of underground pipe in NFPA 13R installations\n3.    Locate and apply correlated and enhance sprinkler temperature-rating requirements\n4.    Identify new installation requirements for concealed spaces with fuel-fired equipment in NFPA 13D installations\n5.    Identify updates to NFPA 13D calculation worksheets \n  \n Learn More and Register\n  \nDetails:  \nRegistration Fees (per person):\nAFSA  Member Without CEU: FREE\nAFSA Member With CEU: $25.00\nAHJ Without CEU: FREE\nAHJ With CEU: $15\nNon-Member: $250 \nContinuing Education Credit: \nThis webinar offers: 0.1 CEUs\, 1.0 CPDs \nTo receive continuing education credits for the webinar\, you must do all of the following: \n\nRegister individually using your name that matches your fitter certification\, if applicable.\nConnect with your unique webinar link.\nDo not share or use someone else’s unique webinar link.\nAttend the webinar in its entirety\nRespond to each checkpoint question\nSubmit a completed evaluation form within 14 days of the webinar\n\nPlease check your time zone to ensure you connect at the right time: \n9:00 AM – 10:00 AM Pacific Time \n10:00 AM – 11:00 AM Mountain Time \n11:00 AM – 12:00 PM Central Time \n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM Eastern Time

SUMMARY:ITM of Standpipe Systems (CAL FIRE)
DESCRIPTION:This session will examine requirements for inspection\, testing\, and maintenance of standpipe systems according to the 2020 edition of NFPA 25. Presenters will discuss key equipment installed on standpipe systems and how it should be tested. Discussion will include evaluating test results\, how to classify conditions that could impact the performance of the standpipe system\, and potential changes to NFPA 25 and NFPA 14 that could impact future standpipe testing. \nLearning Objectives: \n1.    Examine current requirements for periodic standpipe system inspection\, testing\, and maintenance.\n2.    Discuss key equipment installed on standpipe systems\, such as hose valves\, pressure-regulating devices\, and pressure-restricting devices.\n3.    Identify methods of conducting flow testing of standpipe systems and hydrostatic testing of standpipe systems and fire department connections.\n4.    Analyze testing results and determine how to classify findings that may impact system performance.\n5.    Evaluate potential changes being discussed to NFPA 14 and NFPA 25 that could impact future inspection\, testing\, and maintenance of standpipe systems. \n  \n Learn More and Register\n  \nDetails:  \nRegistration Fees (per person):\nAFSA  Member Without CEU: FREE\nAFSA Member With CEU: $25.00\nAHJ Without CEU: FREE\nAHJ With CEU: $15\nNon-Member: $250 \nContinuing Education Credit: \nThis webinar offers: 0.1 CEUs\, 1.0 CPDs \nTo receive continuing education credits for the webinar\, you must do all of the following: \n\nRegister individually using your name that matches your fitter certification\, if applicable.\nConnect with your unique webinar link.\nDo not share or use someone else’s unique webinar link.\nAttend the webinar in its entirety\nRespond to each checkpoint question\nSubmit a completed evaluation form within 14 days of the webinar\n\nPlease check your time zone to ensure you connect at the right time: \n9:00 AM – 10:00 AM Pacific Time \n10:00 AM – 11:00 AM Mountain Time \n11:00 AM – 12:00 PM Central Time \n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM Eastern Time

SUMMARY:Hands-On Course for Inspection\, Testing & Maintenance of Water-based Fire Protection Systems
DESCRIPTION:This class will provide a 3-day hands-on review of the inspection\, testing\, and maintenance (ITM) requirements for sprinkler systems\, standpipe systems\, fire pumps\, and common components for water-based fire protection systems through classroom-based review and hands-on demonstrations and practice. Half of the course includes a classroom-based review\, and the other half consists of hands-on demonstrations and practice. Specific hands-on tests will vary and may include main drain test; valve status test; dry system trip test; preaction/deluge trip test; resetting dry and preaction/deluge valves; weekly\, monthly\, and annual fire pump tests; and air supplies (air compressors and nitrogen generators). \nLearning Objectives: \nUpon completion\, participants will be able to: \n\n Identify required periodic inspection\, testing\, and maintenance requirements for water-based fire protection systems and system components.\nPerform required periodic inspection\, testing\, and maintenance requirements for water-based fire protection systems and system components.\nInterpret the results from periodic inspection\, testing\, and maintenance activities.\n\nAFSA Provides: \n\nHandout slides\nThree copies of the hydraulic graph\nOne NFPA Inspection form per student\nOne notebook per student\nAFSA Pens\nAFSA scales\nPhysical copy of NFPA 25\, 2020 edition\n\nCredits & Approvals: \n\nCPDs: 22.5\nCEUs: 2.25\nContact Hours: 22.5\nFL Approval: FP17079-22.5 (expires July 2022)\n\n\n\n\nContractor I\, II\, III & WB Inspector\nThis course is approved for credit by the Florida Fire Safety Board.\n\n\n\n  \nMore Info & Register
