Our Sprinklers Capability
Sprinkler systems remain one of the most effective and widely required forms of fire protection. We design, install and maintain systems that meet British Standard requirements and insurer expectations, giving you confidence your building is properly protected.
Our Sprinklers services include:
Comms Rooms
Where sprinkler protection is required in comms rooms, we design systems that meet compliance requirements while minimising risk to sensitive equipment, working alongside suppression solutions where a combined approach is needed.
Dry / Wet Risers
Dry and wet riser systems give fire services fast access to water supply in multi-storey buildings. We install and maintain riser systems that meet current regulations and remain ready when they're needed most.
Sprinklers FAQs
-
Requirements vary by building type, size and use. Many commercial, industrial and high rise residential buildings are required to have sprinkler protection under current building regulations.
-
A dry riser is filled with water by the fire service on arrival, while a wet riser is permanently filled and pressurised, giving faster access to water in taller buildings.
-
Sprinkler systems should be inspected and tested regularly, with a full service carried out at least annually to remain compliant and insurable.
-
Sprinklers can be used in comms rooms, but suppression systems are often preferred to avoid water damage to sensitive equipment. We can advise on the best approach for your space.
-
A properly installed and maintained sprinkler system can often reduce insurance premiums, as it lowers the overall fire risk to the building.
