Wet Riser Installation

We are Wet Riser installation experts. We work closely with M&E contractors to provide and fit the Main riser pipework, PRVs, Isolation valves and test drains.

• A test riser is installed in parallel to the wet riser to allow the evacuation of water from the Wet Riser for flow test purposes.
• PRVs are installed at every floor to ensure the required optimum pressure is delivered in the event of an emergency
