Fire Flow Calculator

The Permits Group of the Harris County Public Infrastructure Department (PID) produces fire flow reports for new construction in Harris County. Fire Departments in the unincorporated Harris County no longer produce fire flow letters for new construction.

To perform these calculations, PID uses

  • The fire flow calculator spreadsheet provided by the Harris County Fire Marshal
  • Information about the building (see the fields in the above spreadsheet)
  • The latest listing of the responding fire department resources (engines, tankers, and ladder trucks)
