Wet/Dry Risers

Tall buildings sometimes need specialised solutions to enable those tackling a fire to get the water where it’s needed, which in some cases could be many storeys up in the air. Dry and wet riser systems have been specifically designed to deal with this problem, and Scutum North can design and install them for your property in North England, including in and around Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield.

Alongside this, we also offer wet/dry riser maintenance and wet/dry riser testing services to ensure your system is always in the right condition and state of repair to provide an effective firefighting solution.

Wet Riser Systems

A wet riser fire fighting system is designed for use in tall buildings that are over 50 metres high. To enable this to happen, a wet riser needs to be constantly charged with water so that it is always ready to use in an emergency, even at the highest levels.
