Fire inspection software that is built round the due dates, not round a job board
A fire protection contractor does not lose money on the visit. It loses money on the visit nobody scheduled, the deficiency nobody came back for, and the report nobody can find when the fire marshal asks. Every one of those is a date: portable extinguishers are visually inspected monthly and get an annual maintenance check whose date has to be recorded and kept for a year; a sprinkler system's main drain flow test is annual and its inspector's test valve is opened at least every two years; standpipe hose systems are inspected at least annually and after each use; fixed suppression containers are weighed at least semi-annually. Those are the federal floor, and the standard your AHJ enforces will ask for more. Hydrantly keeps every building, every system in it, every one of those dates and every open deficiency on one record, and ships the two documents the visit produces free.
For contractors running more than one route
Once every building's systems and due dates are on a record, next quarter's schedule is a query rather than a memory, and the deficiency list stops being a stack of paper in a van.
What Hydrantly holds, and the interval behind each of them
- The schedule is the intervals, not a wall calendar. Monthly extinguisher visuals, an annual maintenance check, an annual main drain flow test, the inspector's test valve every two years, containers weighed semi-annually. Put a system on a building and its next date is arithmetic rather than memory.
- Nothing closes until somebody clears it. A deficiency raised on a visit stays open against its building and its system until a later visit clears it. That is the list that turns an inspection contract into return work, and it is the one most often lost between a notebook and a spreadsheet.
- The year of reports the AHJ eventually asks for. OSHA requires the annual extinguisher maintenance date be recorded and kept for a year, available on request. Every report and checklist you produce here stays against its building, so producing the file is a search rather than a hunt.
