Derik, NFPA 25 states flow tests 6.3.1 Shall be conducted every 5 years on all automatic standpipe systems.. your system is not automatic but manual. Since it is under water pressure at all times no need for a hydro test either.

I have been told; A. You don't have to flow test. B. Perform flow test and calculate assistance needed. C. You need to do a proper test with a pumper truck. The only thing I can find in 25 is that no hydrostatic test is required on manual wet. Can anybody steer me in the right direction?
