The "Dry Standpipe Sign" is a vital indicator in buildings equipped with dry standpipe systems, crucial for firefighting operations. By clearly marking the presence and location of the standpipe system, this sign ensures that firefighters and emergency responders can swiftly access the necessary equipment during fire incidents. Dry standpipes provide essential water access points, particularly in high-rise buildings, where traditional hose lines may be insufficient. Therefore, the "Dry Standpipe Sign" plays a pivotal role in enhancing fire safety measures, facilitating efficient firefighting operations, 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.
