Having a reliable water supply to meet the basic fire flow needs of a community is a major factor in determining that community’s Public Protection Classification (PPC®). ISO can award 17.5 percent of the points from evaluating the water system to a community if it documents annual inspections and conducts fire flow calculations on all fire hydrants within their fire protection area.
