A Dry Riser – Would you know what we were talking about? What their purpose is? How they work? Or what one actually is?
A Dry Riser is basically a vertical pipe system, consisting of inlet valves, pipe work and outlet valves; a system that is designed to be attached to a fire engine tank. They are used to deliver fast water access, within buildings, for firefighters.
In the event of a fire emergency, every second counts. Delays can often mean the difference between life and death. Having a built-in distribution system means that the fire service can do their job quickly and efficiently as they don’t have to create their own distribution system.
If a dry riser fails, the consequences could be catastrophic, and as a business, you could be liable for prosecution. Comprehensive testing and maintenance of dry risers is key to helping local businesses be compliant, and most importantly, totally safe.
