A dry riser is a vertical pipe system installed in taller or larger buildings. It allows the Fire Service to quickly pump water to upper floors during an emergency.
When correctly maintained, it provides essential support for firefighting operations. Without regular inspection and testing, the system may fail when needed most.

Critical support where internal access routes are extended
Dry risers are commonly required in buildings over 18 metres in height and may also be necessary where internal access routes, basements, or complex layouts make firefighting access more demanding.
Common examples include apartment blocks, high-rise office buildings, hotels, student accommodation, and hospitals.
Dry risers may also be required in warehouses, industrial units, shopping centres, large commercial premises, deep basements, and complex multi-storey buildings.
If your property has multiple floors or extended internal access routes, a dry riser may be necessary. Our team can assess your building and provide professional guidance.
Dry riser systems must comply with BS 9990:2015, the British Standard governing fire-fighting mains. These inspections confirm the system is free from damage, leaks, or faults and remains ready for emergency use.
If required, we can carry out a dry preliminary test before completing the annual wet pressure test to reduce concerns about potential leaks. We also supply and install compliant dry riser signage where needed.
