About fire hydrants & standpipes.

A short primer on standpipe systems and the most common configurations we install across multi-storey and industrial sites.

A standpipe is a vertical run of fixed pipework that delivers water from a building’s supply to outlets on each floor. Properly designed, it lets a fire crew connect at any level instead of running hose up a stairwell — which costs time most fires don’t give you.

We supply standpipe configurations in four common styles: solid head with handle (no shut-off), swivel head (no shut-off), swivel head with screw-down valve, and swivel head with BS 336 connection. The right choice depends on water supply, accessibility and the hose couplings already on site.

Outlets on a standpipe also reduce strain on a single hose run. Long horizontal pulls through a stairwell add friction, risk kinks, and make the water harder to direct — outlets per floor keep the working hose short and predictable.

Standpipe systems also give a measure of redundancy: if one floor outlet is compromised by fire or damage, the remaining outlets continue to deliver water to crews working below.

About hydrant valves.

Hydrant valves regulate or release the water supply at the hydrant — different bodies and angles suit different mains and connection types.

Most fire hydrant valves are not designed to throttle flow — they are intended to be operated fully open or fully closed. Partial opening can cause cavitation and scouring inside the valve body, which shortens its working life and reduces the flow under load.

Our hydrant valves are manufactured from fire-rated materials and assemble onto hose-rated couplings. Each valve is supplied with a traceable identifier so it appears on your site register with the rest of your fire equipment.

The five valve types we stock cover the common combinations of angle and size: right-angle 80mm brass, right-angle 80mm tamper- proof brass, right-angle 80mm cast iron, upward oblique 80mm brass, and 50mm marine upward oblique brass — for sites where a non- standard pipework angle or material is required.
