Don-
The truck is hooked up to a private hydrant downstream of the BFP and located 
next to the yard FDC. The FDC is on a dedicated line back to the building, 
tying in downstream of the pump discharge.

Thank you,

Where are they drawing the water from?

I have an odd request. How about you taking some time to describe exactly what

have told us next to nothing so far.

Thank you.

AHJ had us remove a 5” Storz and replace it with a custom header that has (4) 
2-1/2” hose valves for the FDC. Standpipe test has failed 3 times and now 
they’re thinking water is circulating through these valves back to the fire 
truck. Anybody ever run into something like that?
