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 Healds Green in Greater Manchester 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.

BS9990 Compliant Dry Riser Testing and Certification from Trusted Engineers

The dry riser maintenance service provided by Oltec is thorough, structured, and fully aligned with BS9990 and current UK fire safety legislation, giving duty holders across Healds Green in Greater Manchester 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. Our team's strong knowledge of British Standards and local building requirements makes us an experienced and dependable partner for property managers who want to be confident that their dry riser systems are consistently maintained, tested, and ready for emergency use at all times.
