When modeling fire flow what type o
When modeling fire flow what type o
(OP)
When modeling fire flow what type of demand should the houses have. More specifically, max day, peak hour, instantateous peak, etc.) I have been using instantaneous peak but I have been told that this is too conservative.

Second, AWWA Manual M-31 (Page 21) indicates the total demand should be the required fire flow plus (either max day or max hour demand - whichever is greater).
Consider time of day and time of year fluctuations in the water supply system flows and pressures. These are not necessarily trivial.
