The "Dry Standpipe FIRE Hose Valve Sign" is a crucial indicator in buildings equipped with dry standpipe systems, essential for firefighting operations. By clearly marking the location of the fire hose valve on the dry standpipe, this sign ensures quick and efficient access for firefighters during emergencies. It enables responders to rapidly connect hoses to the standpipe system, facilitating the delivery of water to extinguish fires, particularly in high-rise buildings. Consequently, the "Dry Standpipe FIRE Hose Valve Sign" plays a pivotal role in enhancing fire safety measures, expediting firefighting efforts, and ultimately protecting lives and property in the event of a fire emergency.

Dry Standpipe Signs are designed to inform fire department officers and concerned parties of the type of sprinkler system in the building at hand. A dry standpipe system presents a network of in-place pipework allowing connections between a water supply (usually a fire department mobile apparatus known as a pumper) and a dedicated inlet at street level; With hose outlet valves on each floor.

 

Frequently asked Questions about dry standpipe and standpipe systems:

What is a dry standpipe ? With dry standpipes, the standpipe extends into the building to supply fire fighting water to the interior of the structure via hose outlets; Often located between each pair of floors in stairwells in high- rise buildings, dry standpipes are not filled with water until needed.

What is a manual dry standpipe? Automatic Dry Standpipe systems are only designed to have water in the system piping when the system is in use. Manual Dry Standpipe systems are for fire department use exclusively and require a fire department pumper to supply the needed pressure and water supply through a fire department connection

 

There are four types of standpipes that you will find in use:
·         Wet system with water in the pipes at all times; It is supplied by a water source. The pressure in the system is maintained constantly.
·         Automatic dry standpipe with air stored always inside the standpipe at a constant pressure; When a hose valve is opened, the air escapes allowing the water to enter into the standpipe system.
·         Semi-automatic dry standpipe with air stored inside the pipes, which can be either pressurized or not pressurized; With it water then enters the system, when an actuation device such as a manual pull station or an electrical switch is activated.
·         Manual dry standpipe system only with pipes feeding the system; With neither air nor water in them; For water to be supplied through the standpipe, a fire apparatus must be used.
 
Fire hose signs are designed to inform guests and fire department 1st respondents of the location of the fire hose. A fire hose is a high-pressure hose that carries water or other fire retardant substances to a fire to extinguish it. Outdoors, it is attached either to a fire engine or a fire hydrant. Indoors, it can be permanently attached to a building's standpipe or plumbing system. When fires start, fast emergency response by all involved parties is crucial and the easy search and locating of the tools needed to put out the flames is essential. Our Fire hose signs allow 1st respondents and guests to easily locate the fire hose. We are proud to point out that our fire hose signs combine quality and durability at an affordable price.

 

Fire hose signs belong to the family of fire equipment signs. Fire Hoses and Fire Hose Reels are amongst the most important parts of fire standpipe systems and firefighters must be allowed an ease of access that ensures the fire extinguishing on any and all floors in the building at hand. In the event of a fire, fire safety equipment needs to be easily findable and accessible. Our fire hose signs help emergency personnel locate fire hoses quickly.

 

Most fire hoses have Fire hose and fire hydrant valves that control the flow of water going to water hoses or engine pumps. They attach to fire hydrants and hose lines. A Fire Hydrant Valve is a pipe fitting that helps regulate, direct or control the flow of fire suppressing agents by opening, closing or partially obstructing passageways in the hose connectors. Non- return valves stop the fire suppressing agent from flowing in the wrong direction
