Wet & Dry Riser Servicing for Your Safety
At Assured Fire & Security, we specialise in wet & dry riser servicing and maintenance, and comprehensive testing to keep your fire safety systems reliable and compliant. These systems are critical for supplying water to upper floors during a fire, ensuring firefighters can respond quickly. Regular maintenance and inspections not only safeguard lives and property but also ensure compliance with legal requirements, helping you avoid costly penalties.
Comprehensive Servicing and Maintenance of Dry & Wet Risers
Both dry and wet risers require regular servicing and testing to comply with BS9990:2015 standards. This includes six-monthly visual dry riser inspections and wet riser inspections, as well as annual dry riser testing and wet riser testing.
Our certified engineers meticulously examine all components, including pipework, landing valves, seals, washers, external cabinets, and signage, ensuring everything functions as it should. After servicing, we issue a detailed maintenance certificate along with recommendations for repairs or upgrades if needed. This proactive approach ensures your risers remain fully operational and compliant.
