Professional Dry Riser Maintenance for Residential and Commercial Buildings
Dry riser servicing is one of the most important elements of fire safety management in any multi-storey building, and at Oltec Facilities Management we provide a professional, fully structured dry riser maintenance service for both residential and commercial properties throughout Halberton in Devon. Our dry riser maintenance programme covers all key system components, including inlet breeching connections, landing valves, outlet valves, drain valves, and all associated pipework and fittings. Regular servicing ensures that your dry riser system remains operational, legally compliant, and ready to deliver water effectively to upper floors the moment the fire brigade connects at street level. For property managers responsible for large residential blocks or commercial buildings, consistent dry riser maintenance is not optional; it is a legal duty under UK fire safety legislation. Our team coordinates all aspects of your servicing schedule, provides detailed written reports after every visit, and issues compliance certificates so that duty holders always have the documentation they need to demonstrate regulatory compliance and protect both occupants and themselves from unnecessary risk.
Why a Dry Riser System Is Critical to High-Rise Fire Safety
A dry riser system is a vertical pipework installation built into multi-storey buildings specifically to support firefighting operations. It connects externally at street level through a breeching inlet, allowing the fire brigade to pump water into the system and deliver it to landing valves on each floor. This means that firefighters responding to an incident in a high-rise building have immediate access to a reliable water supply at the point they need it, regardless of whether the mains pressure at street level is sufficient to reach the upper floors. In Halberton in Devon and across the UK, dry risers are installed in buildings where floors exceed 18 metres in height, forming a fundamental part of the building's overall fire safety infrastructure. A dry riser system must be kept in excellent condition to function correctly in an emergency. That is why regular inspections, hydraulic pressure testing, and prompt repairs are so important. Without them, the system may fail at the critical moment when firefighters depend on it most. Oltec Facilities Management ensures your system is always ready.

The dry riser maintenance service provided by Oltec FM is thorough, structured, and fully aligned with BS9990 and current UK fire safety legislation, giving duty holders across Halberton in Devon the assurance that every system in their care is compliant, documented, and operationally ready. Our engineers carry out a detailed visual inspection of all system components during every service visit, including inlet breeching connections, landing valves, outlet valves, drain valves, and all associated fittings, caps, and signage. We then conduct hydraulic pressure testing to verify that the system can sustain the required pressure without leaks or failures, and we identify and address any defects or areas of concern found during the process. All findings are recorded in a comprehensive written report, and compliance certificates are issued to support the duty holder's fire safety management records.
