Dry Risers are an important piece of equipment for tall, large buildings when it comes to keeping your property safe from the risk of extensive fire damage. Buildings above 18m will tend to have dry risers and buildings over 60m will have wet risers.

Due to the nature of them, dry risers can be prone to serious neglect and even vandalism so it is important to have them regularly maintained and inspected. With the potential for severe penalties should they fail to function when needed, the dry risers should be visually inspected and serviced every 6 months and, pressure tested annually.
