what is a 5-year internal inspection?
Every five years, NFPA 25 requires an internal assessment of your sprinkler system to make sure nothing inside the pipes is blocking water flow. We’re not just looking — we’re opening it up, inspecting it from the inside, and showing you what’s going on before it becomes a problem.

Why it actually Matters
Sprinkler pipes carry water — and over time, that water can leave behind rust, sediment, or microbial growth. You won’t see it from the outside. But inside? It can look like this ↓

If left unchecked, these blockages can:
ⓧ Prevent water from reaching sprinklers during a fire
ⓧ Reduce system pressure or delay activation
ⓧ Trigger costly pipe replacements or system failures
ⓧ Lead to failed inspections and emergency shutdowns
​​​
don't wait for a failure
Most systems look fine on the outside — until there’s an emergency.​​
