Pump signs

Pump signs are vital for identifying fire pump rooms and equipment that supply water to sprinkler and standpipe systems. Clear signage ensures firefighters and maintenance personnel can quickly locate the pump during emergencies, reducing response time and improving safety. These signs also help building staff monitor and maintain fire pump systems as part of routine inspections. By marking fire pump areas with durable, visible signage, property owners ensure compliance with FDNY, NFPA, and local building codes while protecting lives and property.

A fire pump in a building is a specialized water pump that increases pressure in sprinkler and standpipe systems when the normal water supply is not sufficient. Fire pumps draw water from a municipal supply, storage tank, or reservoir and deliver it at the pressure needed to fight a fire, especially in high-rise buildings or large facilities. Because the fire pump is such a critical piece of fire protection infrastructure, pump signs make its location obvious and accessible, ensuring firefighters and inspectors know exactly where it is when every second matters.
