What is involved in a 5 year inspection/test for a manual wet standpipe?
I see in NFPA 25, 2017 edition that manual wet standpipes are not required to be flow tested or hydrotested when part of the sprinkler system. So my question again is are there any specific requirements for 5 year testing for manual wet standpipes? Thank you all! Sent in anonymously for discussion.

That is correct to how the 2017 code reads to me.

I agree with Pete. NFPA-25, 6.1 et al lists requirements for flow testing, checked up until 2020( 25 handbook). Forward flow only for automatic wet standpipes ( to check the flow and pressure at system flow)
