What Is a Dry Riser?
A dry riser is a network of pipes installed in tall buildings that allows firefighters to deliver water to upper floors during a fire. The system remains empty under normal conditions and is connected to a water supply by the fire service through an external inlet point. Once pressurised, it provides water to outlets located on each floor, enabling rapid firefighting action without the need for long, external hoses.
These systems are essential for buildings over 18 metres high and must be maintained in accordance with BS 9990:2015 to ensure operational readiness. Regular testing and maintenance are vital, as any fault could have serious consequences during an emergency.
At Morgan Fire Protection, we deliver reliable dry riser inspections and maintenance designed to keep your property fully compliant and ready for use when needed most.
Why Dry Riser Testing Is So Important
A dry riser system is a building’s lifeline during a fire, but only if it functions correctly. Over time, components such as valves, washers, and seals can deteriorate, or external inlets may become damaged or blocked. That’s why regular dry riser testing is a legal requirement for buildings equipped with this system.
Annual pressure testing and visual inspections are necessary to confirm that your riser is free from leaks, corrosion, and mechanical defects. Without proper maintenance, you could be at risk of non-compliance with fire safety laws and potential system failure when it matters most.
By choosing Morgan Fire Protection for your dry riser servicing, you can be confident that your system meets every safety and performance standard set by UK regulations.
