Fire Hydrant Management Software
Map and manage every hydrant in your jurisdiction
What is Fire Hydrant Management Software?
Fire hydrants are critical infrastructure, but many departments track them with paper records, spreadsheets, or not at all. Station Boss hydrant management puts every hydrant on a searchable, interactive map with complete inspection and maintenance histories.
Each hydrant record includes GPS location, make and model, installation date, last inspection, flow test results, and current status. The map view color-codes hydrants by flow rate, status, or inspection compliance so crews and officers can see the water supply picture at a glance during pre-planning and response.
Flow test records, maintenance work, and inspection results are logged against each hydrant with timestamps and responsible personnel. When a hydrant is out of service, the map updates immediately so responding units know before they arrive on scene.
Key Capabilities
Interactive Hydrant Map
Every hydrant plotted on an interactive map with color coding by flow rate, status, or inspection compliance. Zoom, filter, and click for details.
Flow Test Records
Log static pressure, residual pressure, and flow rate from hydrant flow tests. Historical data shows performance trends over time.
Inspection Tracking
Schedule and track hydrant inspections. Record conditions, maintenance performed, and issues found during each inspection.
Out-of-Service Alerts
When a hydrant is marked out of service, the map updates immediately and nearby units are aware during response.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I import hydrant locations from GIS?
- Yes. Station Boss supports importing hydrant data from CSV files including GIS coordinates, specifications, and identification numbers.
- Does the map show flow rates?
- Yes. Hydrants can be color-coded by flow rate category so crews can quickly identify water supply capabilities in any area.
- Can water utilities update hydrant records?
