Wet riser systems
A wet riser system is a type of fire protection system commonly found in tall buildings, such as high-rise structures, where firefighting water needs to be readily available at various levels. It consists of a vertical pipe or 'riser' that runs throughout the building, typically alongside stairwells or within service shafts.
This riser is connected to a reliable water supply, such as a dedicated water tank or a pressurized water main.
Wet riser systems are designed to provide reliable firefighting water supply to all levels of a building, particularly in high-rise structures where the use of portable firefighting equipment may be impractical or insufficient.
They are an essential component of the overall fire protection strategy for tall buildings, helping to ensure the safety of occupants and the effective suppression of fires.
