What Does A Dry Riser Installer Do?

A dry riser installer is responsible for the design, installation, and commissioning of dry riser systems, ensuring that buildings meet fire safety regulations.

The installation process includes assessing the site, determining the best placement for the riser pipework, inlet, and outlet valves, and securing all components according to fire codes and building standards. After installation, the system must undergo pressure testing to confirm it meets legal requirements before being certified for use.

At Dry Riser Installers, we ensure that the dry riser is accessible for emergency services, functioning correctly, and compliant with British Standard BS 9990:2015 and other relevant safety standards.

How Much Does It Cost To Hire A Dry Riser Installer?

A dry riser installation costs range from £2,000 to £10,000, with higher prices for taller buildings requiring extensive pipework. The cost of hiring a dry riser installer varies depending on building type, height, and complexity.

Additional expenses may include testing and certification fees, maintenance plans, and site-specific modifications. Investing in expert dry riser installation ensures that your system meets legal requirements, reducing the risk of costly fines and future remedial work.

What Are The Legal Requirements For Dry Riser Installation?

Dry risers are legally required in buildings over 18 metres tall (approximately six storeys or more) under UK fire safety regulations. They must comply with BS 9990:2015, which outlines installation, testing, and maintenance guidelines.

In the US and other international regions, dry riser requirements vary based on local fire codes. After installation, systems must undergo annual pressure testing and six-monthly visual inspections to remain compliant. Failure to meet legal standards can result in fines, enforcement actions, and increased fire risks.

Do Dry Riser Installers Also Provide Maintenance Services?

Dry riser installers offer regular testing and inspections that are legally required, including visual checks every six months and full pressure tests annually.

Maintenance services include checking for leaks, corrosion, blockages, and damaged components, ensuring the system functions correctly in an emergency.

Installers from Dry Riser Installers also provide long-term service agreements which ensure that the dry riser remains in top condition and avoids potential compliance issues.

Other considerations include site readiness, potential structural modifications, and compliance with local fire regulations. Coordination with building management and scheduling inspections may also impact the overall timeline.
