Water for Fire Protection in Shasta County
The Shasta County Fire Department delegates fire emergency services as well as compliance of the Uniform Fire Code with inspections, permits, and public outreach. New buildings are required to have fire sprinkler systems installed, according to the Shasta County fire and building codes. If fire flow is not achieved with the providing water supply, additional water storage may be needed for fire code compliance.
Pioneer Water Tanks are engineered to NFPA standards for water storage for fire protection. The tank body and roof are made of Zincalume® Steel, which is proven to withstand fire immersion. The tank’s firefighting adapters and nozzles are compatible with fire hoses across California.
Pioneer Water Tanks can be configured for cyclonic and seismic conditions, as well as heavy industrial zones. Additional accessories are available for different compliance needs. Outfit your tank with anti-vortex fittings and firefighting adapters for quick access during a fire emergency.
Fire Protection Tanks range from 7 to 11 feet in height with gross capacities ranging from 10,000 gallons to 1,000,000 gallons to accomplish your compliance needs. The amount of water that the tank needs to store is dependent on the county fire authority fire flow requirements. Fire flow requirements specify the amount of water needed to adequately provide fire protection.

This is typically achieved with two separate plumbing systems being implemented with the water tank. The plumbing pipe for the separate use does not extend below the water elevation that is reserved for fire protection.
