Product Information
Full design and installation of water supplies and risers in high rise buildings.
Applications
Wet risers, dry risers and hydrants are used to supply water within buildings for firefighting purposes. The provision of a built-in water distribution system means that firefighters do not need to run their hose from the fire engine to the fire source.
Wet risers and hydrants are permanently charged with water. Dry risers do not contain water when they are not being used and are charged with water by the fire service when necessary.
Installation
All risers and hydrants are installed to fully conform with BS9990. The design and installation of risers and hydrants meet all the design considerations set out in British standards in order to provide systems that allow unobstructed access for fire fighters and will allow for the correct water flows at each outlet.
