Training
Hydrant Operation & Maintenance
Service Description
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP: Hydrants are a critical part of a community’s distribution system and firefighting system. An operational understanding is required for firefighters, street cleaners, and water distribution operators. Safe operation of hydrants is emphasized, with special consideration to preventing water hammer. This workshop provides distribution operators an understanding of the impact of hydrant operation on the distribution system, and the role hydrants play not only for firefighting, but also for distribution system maintenance (such as in water main swabbing). The community may have a collection of various hydrants from many different eras, and a detailed understanding of maintenance is required for extending the lifetime of any given hydrant. This full-day workshop provides operational and maintenance theory in the morning and a practical session (in Regina Beach approximately 55 km NW of Regina) with hands-on learning in the afternoon. This workshop includes one day of instruction, classroom material, and Record of Completion. PREREQUISITES None NOTE: CEU Credit is not granted by the Operator Certification Board of Saskatchewan if the same workshop has been taken more than once in two consecutive renewal periods. Workshop runs from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm.
