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 Pike Fold in Greater Manchester 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.

At Oltec Services, 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 Pike Fold in Greater Manchester 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.
