A "wet" standpipe is filled with water and is pressurized at all times. In contrast to dry standpipe systems, which can be used only by firefighters, wet standpipes can be used by building occupants as well. Usually wet standpipes feature hoses, that allow building occupants to launch quick fire attacks.
What is the purpose of a standpipe?
There are two main categories of standpipes
1) Wet
2) Dry.
Wet systems are either automatic wet or manual wet. Automatic wet systems keep water in the standpipe system at all times and have a fire pump capable of providing the needed pressures. Manual wet systems keep water in the system at all times, but are not backed up by a pump. A combination of a manual wet standpipe and a sprinkler system may allow for sufficient pressure sprinkler supply without the use of a pump; Such a system however, may in fact need a relatively small pump to supply sprinklers properly; But will not adequately supply hose outlets.
