What Is A Fire Sprinkler Riser

Wiki Article

Fire sprinkler risersis like a bridge between your water supply and the sprinkler pipes in your building. That’s where water gets onto the building for fire extinguishing purposes. In actual sense, sprinkler riser is the main component of the sprinkler system. To even signify this, standard NFPA 13 stipulates some regulations about the placement and inclusion of valves, pressure gauges, and other crucial components on the riser.

Sprinkler risers can be complex and thus confusing for any DIY project. Nearby Engineers provides unmatched designs, installations, and inspections on these risers to ensure that your sprinkler system runs smoothly. Oftentimes, there is a sprinkler riser room where you house the riser compactly. There are recommendations on how the riser room should be like and these include having the external door, contrasting labeling colors, and setting the temperature above 40 degrees Fahrenheit to avoid freezing of the pipes.

Are There Different Sprinkler Risers To Consider?

Sprinkler risers are basically the same but differ in configurations and number of component parts: for example, valves. Back in the days, these risers used to come in parts to assemble and that took a considerably long time to assemble for most people. Because we’re experts in these designs, nothing seemed any complex.

Today, most sprinklers are pre-fabricated to just fit in with minor configurations and get going. Our engineers provide these pre-fabricated risers for any kind of sprinkler system. We can also set it up without you actually doing anything. Even more, we can connect your sprinkler piping system to run smoothly in a blink of an eye.
