Every second counts for high-rise fire safety
When it comes to high-rise fire safety, every second counts. That’s why Fireproof Fire Engineering champions fixed fire dry risers, a critical line of defence against tower block fires. Imagine a network of sturdy steel pipes discreetly coursing up the heart of your building. These aren’t your average water lines; they stand ready, empty yet primed, to become the firefighters’ rapid water highway in an emergency.
Think of it this way: traditional firefighting hoses battle gravity with every inch they climb. Dry risers outsmart this challenge. Firefighters simply connect their pump to the ground-level inlet. Water surges up the pressurised pipes, reaching even the highest floors in a fraction of the time. This critical speed can mean the difference between lives saved and lives lost.
