Why a Dry Riser System Is Critical to High-Rise Fire Safety
The dry riser system is an essential component of fire safety in any multi-storey or high-rise building, providing the fire brigade with a direct and reliable means of delivering water to upper floors during an emergency. Installed as a network of vertical pipework within the building's core or stairwells, a dry riser connects at street level through a breeching inlet, where firefighters can pump water at pressure into the system. Landing valves at each floor level then allow the fire crew to connect hoses and tackle a fire effectively, even where mains water pressure alone would be insufficient to reach the upper floors. Buildings exceeding 18 metres in height across Clift in Dorset are typically required to have dry riser systems installed, and those systems must be kept in full working order through regular inspection, pressure testing, and maintenance in line with BS9990. Without consistent and compliant servicing, a dry riser system may develop undetected faults that could prevent it from functioning correctly when lives depend on it. Oltec Services provides the expert servicing your system needs to remain reliable.

At Oltec, our dry riser maintenance services are delivered by BS9990 trained engineers who follow recognised British Standards throughout every inspection, test, and repair. Our comprehensive service includes a thorough visual inspection of all inlets, landing valves, and outlet valves, along with checks of all signage, caps, and associated fittings to ensure they are in good condition and correctly positioned. We carry out hydraulic pressure testing to confirm that the system can perform under operating conditions, and we identify and repair any defects or damage found during our visit. On completion, we issue compliance certificates and detailed maintenance reports that give duty holders across Clift in Dorset clear, documented evidence that their dry riser system has been properly serviced in line with legal and safety requirements. Whether you manage a single residential block or a large portfolio of commercial properties, our structured approach to dry riser servicing ensures that every system under our care is operational, reliable, and fully compliant with current UK fire safety standards throughout the year.
