Workflow
Workflow
- Confirm the service is a fire line subject to Westminster's program.
- Complete the required installation test or annual retest.
- Keep the fire line compliance record aligned with the city manual.
Residential
- Westminster is stronger than many Colorado utilities for residential angles because it explicitly includes domestic service in the same city program.
- Residential demand still becomes real only when the city has determined that containment protection is required.
Commercial and managed properties
- Commercial value is solid because Westminster makes the service classes explicit and does not hide fire line and irrigation behind a separate standards manual alone.
- The broad scope makes Westminster a good expansion utility even without a public tester directory.
