Wet Risers
A Wet Riser takes the Dry Riser a step further. The pipe work is charged with water at all times, ensuring a constant pressure. The water is usually supplied from a storage tank and pumps but can be from the mains supply.
This enables the Fire Brigade to access pressurised water directly from the outlet on the affected floor without the need to pump water to such a great height. Wet Riser systems are required in buildings over 50m in height.
