Sprinkler system testing for residential properties.
Testing with no disruption to tenants.
Zonecheck is simply the easiest way to carry out flow-switch testing. It has been installed in commercial buildings world-wide, providing an easy and efficient way of maintaining code compliance. As we move to a more stringent and sustainable approach to our homes, our residential products aim to offer cost-effective, simple, sprinkler testing solutions for multistorey residential properties.
SPRINKLER TESTING FOR THE HOME
Sprinkler systems save lives as well as property, however, they do require regular testing to ensure that they work properly. Traditionally, up to 100 litres of drinking water is wasted (discharged to a local drain) for every flow-switch test. Zonecheck can perform this test quickly and efficiently without wasting a drop of water. Our solution enables the end-user to be able to efficiently test each flow-switch without the need to drain water, or even inform occupants that there is any maintenance work being carried out, all at the flick of switch (or fully automated as a part of our addressable system). It is vital that this test is done to be sure that the efficacy of the sprinkler system isn’t comprised.

Featured FAQs
What is Zonecheck Residential?
Zonecheck Residential is simply a smaller version of our Zonecheck unit designed for residential applications. The unit is still made up of an approved flow-switch and circulation line to allow for easy and sustainable flow-switch testing in accordance with residential sprinkler code standards. When the pump is activated, water flows through the flow-switch in a closed loop which activates the flow-switch using water at an appropriate flow-rate with no water being discharged.
Is Zonecheck Residential approved?
Yes. Although no approval is generally required for automatic fire sprinkler products in residential buildings, our galvanised units are LPCB approved and our CPVC units have been certified by Warrington Fire.
Can Zonecheck Residential be monitored?
Yes. With the addition of a Zonecheck Addressable Controller, Zonecheck Residential can be connected to IMMs to form an addressable system which can perform remote and automatic testing and monitoring of flow-switches in larger or mixed-use residential buildings. You can also wire our residential monitored valve to the same IMM for monitoring purposes. For more information please see our Zonecheck Addressable page.
How do you carry out a test with Zonecheck Residential?
Zonecheck Residential has three options for testing. Firstly, our mini-switch offers a no-frills approach with simple on-off functionality, our regular Zonecheck key-switch offers additional security, feedback and grouping features and finally, Zonecheck Residential is also fully compatible with our Zonecheck Addressable technology.
Is Zonecheck Residential available in different configurations?
Yes, there are many options. First of all there is the choice between galvanised steel and CPVC plastic. All our units are available in left and right handed versions but the CPVC versions are also available in two different form formats, one for riser spaces where the unit will be installed vertically and one for void spaces where the unit will be installed horizontally. The idea of these formats is to save valuable space, please download our data sheet for more information. Furthermore, our CPVC versions come with either a standard drain valve or full-sized drain valve and a pressure gauge.
