Request water flow information from the Fire Department

This request is usually tied to a site permit. Fire flow information can help ensure adequate water supply and pressure to protect any additional fire load (square footage) created by the new project.

Sprinkler design review is used by sprinkler designer to ensure adequate water supply and pressure for any required sprinkler and standpipe system.

Project address

If your project does not have a legal address yet, describe its relation to the most relevant nearby address. For example, “behind 100 Mission” or “between 1 S Van Ness and 49 S Van Ness.”

If you do not know the lot number of your address, look it up in <a href="https://sfplanninggis.org/pim/" target="_blank">our property information map</a>. If the block or lot number will change, enter the numbers for the project as they exist now. 

Enter the name of the street then pick from the list.

Indicate the street you want to connect to supply the fire sprinkler system. This should be determined in conjunction with your sprinkler designer. In some cases, a project may choose to connect to a water main on a street other than the one located at the front of the property.

Provide a simple diagram or map screenshot of the job site street address you are requesting water flow information for, including the two intersecting streets that bound it on each side.

Location Information

Select one. Refer to the 2022 San Francisco Fire Code and California Fire Code: Chapter 2. And the California Building Code: Section 302 – Use and Occupancy Classification. (Link?)

You may provide an approximate number if the exact height is unavailable.

Building details

Describe any special requests like if you need multiple tests for one project or you want a field flow test to be performed even if it is not required.
