Dry Riser Inspections

On arrival our team will cordon off the area and undertake a comprehensive mechanical inspection before the system is filled and pressurised to the current standard. We can then inspect the integrity of the system, checking for leaks at every level. Once satisfied we will drain the system back into our testing unit.

The report will be stored with our specially designed software (client portal), enabling you to access it whenever you require. We will also supply a full listing and certificate of testing for your records.

For more details and to book an appointment to get your dry riser tested, contact our team today. We also provide fire extinguisher servicing and fire alarm servicing – why not book all 3 for peace of mind?
