Read the first 7 F-01 Fireguard Fire Watch Patrols flashcards as text

  1. What information must be recorded in the fire watch log each time you complete a patrol round?

    Answer: Time, observations, and any corrective actions taken

    Each log entry must include the time of the patrol, what was observed, and any corrective actions taken to create an accurate record.

  2. Which condition would NOT require you to notify the FDNY immediately during a fire watch?

    Answer: A small fire you successfully extinguished with a portable extinguisher

    Even after successfully using an extinguisher, you must call 911 because hidden fire may remain; however, FDNY must be called for any fire event — none of these are exempt.

  3. Hot work is being performed near a wall containing combustible insulation. As the fireguard, you should ensure:

    Answer: The combustible insulation is shielded with fire-resistant blankets before work begins

    Combustible materials near hot work must be covered with fire-resistant shields or blankets before operations begin to prevent ignition.

  4. A fireguard Certificate of Fitness for F-01 must be renewed every:

    Answer: 3 years

    FDNY F-01 Certificates of Fitness are valid for 3 years and must be renewed prior to expiration.

  5. During a fire watch in an occupied building, you discover an exit door that is chained shut. What should you do?

    Answer: Immediately report it and have the chain removed — locked exits are illegal

    Locking or obstructing exit doors in an occupied building violates fire and life safety codes; the fireguard must have the chain removed immediately.

  6. A sprinkler system is out of service during renovation. The fireguard's patrol frequency during this impairment should be:

    Answer: Increased to compensate for the loss of automatic fire suppression

    When a fire suppression system is impaired, patrol frequency must increase because the automatic safeguard is unavailable.

  7. Which document authorizes hot work to take place in a building?

    Answer: A Hot Work Permit signed by the Certificate of Fitness holder

    A written Hot Work Permit, signed by the appropriate Certificate of Fitness holder, is required before any hot work operations begin.
