![]() hose valves.Ĭoug Dad, do you know of any jurisdictions that prefer manual standpipes for high-rise buidlings, or is that just a personal preference? I am of the same opinion, at least within the ability of the FD pumper apparatus. It is a "short" high-rise, only 21 stories, so the 200-210 psi required at the FDC should be within their capability.īonus points to Aegis! That is exactly the argument I used when discussing the requirements with the FD. I have the requirement in writing, though I am awaiting a confirmation of some of the specifics, such as that their apparatus is capable of the pressures needed for this building. The system will be manual-wet, and they actually require separate standpipe and sprinkler systems, with a "priming" line, to keep the standpipe wet and notify if a valve is open (without tampering every hose valve).
