What Are Wet Fire Systems?

Wet fire systems are active fire protection systems designed to control or suppress fire using water. They commonly include fire sprinklers, fire hydrants, hose reels, pumps, water storage tanks, booster assemblies, valves and associated pipework. Together, these components provide an essential layer of protection for building occupants, emergency responders and property assets. A correctly designed, installed and maintained wet fire system also supports a building's ongoing fire safety and compliance obligations.

FAQ

1. What is a wet fire system?

A wet fire system is an active fire protection system that uses water to help control or suppress a fire. Common components include fire sprinklers, hydrants, hose reels, pumps, tanks, booster assemblies, valves and associated pipework.

2. What is the difference between wet and dry fire systems?

Wet fire systems control or suppress fire through water-based infrastructure such as sprinklers, hydrants and hose reels. Dry fire systems focus on detection, warning and evacuation through smoke detectors, alarms, occupant warning systems and related controls.

3. What can indicate that a wet fire system needs upgrading?

An upgrade may be required because of ageing or damaged components, poor system performance, building alterations, an audit or consultant report, a Fire Safety Order, refurbishment works, or changes to current compliance requirements.

4. Can wet fire upgrades be completed in an occupied building?

Yes. Dapcor plans fire upgrade works around residents, tenants and ongoing building operations. The staging, access and shutdown requirements are coordinated to maintain safety and minimise disruption as far as reasonably possible.

5. How often should wet fire systems be tested and maintained?

Inspection, testing and maintenance requirements depend on the system, building and applicable fire safety obligations. Regular servicing is essential to identify defects, maintain reliable operation and support ongoing compliance.

6. Can Dapcor assist with Fire Safety Orders and AFSS-related works?

Dapcor can assist with wet fire upgrade and rectification works arising from Fire Orders, building audits, consultant reports and annual fire safety statement requirements. The exact scope is coordinated with the relevant project consultants and fire safety practitioners.

7. Does Dapcor provide both wet and dry fire upgrades?

Yes. Dapcor delivers broader fire upgrade works, including wet fire systems, dry fire systems and associated building works required to address fire safety and building compliance.
