Why a Dry Riser System Is Critical to High-Rise Fire Safety
Dry riser systems play a vital and non-negotiable role in fire safety for multi-storey and high-rise buildings across Middle Handley in Derbyshire and throughout the UK. Designed as a fixed vertical pipework installation within the structure of a building, a dry riser allows the fire brigade to connect at a breeching inlet at street level and pump water upwards to landing valves on each floor, providing a controlled and reliable water supply during a fire emergency. Because these systems contain no water under normal operating conditions, they must be regularly inspected and hydraulically pressure tested to confirm they are free from leaks, blockages, or component failures that could prevent them from operating correctly in an emergency. The importance of this testing is underlined by BS9990, the British Standard that governs dry riser inspection and maintenance in the UK. At Oltec, our experienced engineers carry out all required testing, inspection, and certification work to ensure that your dry riser system meets the standard expected of it and is genuinely ready to support firefighting operations when the situation demands it.

During each visit, our engineers carry out a full visual inspection of all dry riser components, including inlets, landing valves, outlet valves, drain points, and associated fittings, checking for signs of damage, corrosion, or non-compliance.

Hydraulic pressure testing is carried out to confirm system integrity, and any defects identified during the inspection are reported, and where possible, repaired during the same visit.
