Standpipe Shutoff Signs are important in identifying the location of standpipe shutoff valves in a building. These signs are typically made of aluminum, measuring 7x10 inches, and have a white background with bold black lettering that reads "STANDPIPE SHUTOFF." They serve as a visual cue for firefighters and building occupants to quickly locate the standpipe shutoff valves in an emergency situation. These signs are typically installed near the shutoff valves and should be clearly visible and legible from a distance.

Standpipe shutoff valves are critical components of a standpipe system in a building. These valves control the flow of water to different parts of the building and are typically located in stairwells or other easily accessible areas. The Standpipe Shutoff Sign helps to identify the location of the shutoff valves, making it easier for firefighters and building occupants to find and use them.

It is important to note that standpipe systems and their shutoff valves require regular maintenance and testing to ensure that they are functioning properly. Building owners or managers should make sure that their standpipe systems and shutoff valves are inspected and tested in accordance with local regulations and building codes. In addition, it is important to ensure that standpipe shutoff signs are installed correctly and are clearly visible and legible at all times.

In conclusion, Standpipe Shutoff Signs are a critical component of fire safety in buildings that have standpipe systems. These signs serve as a visual cue to quickly identify the location of the standpipe shutoff valves in an emergency situation. They should be installed near the shutoff valves, clearly visible, and legible from a distance. Regular maintenance and testing of standpipe systems and shutoff valves are also crucial to ensure that they are functioning properly in the event of a fire.

Our standpipe signs – Design to inform 1st responded about the standpipe system in the building and their locations. A Standpipe system is a series of pipes which connect a water supply to hose connections, basically an extension of the fire hydrant system. They are designed to provide a pre-piped water system for building occupants or the fire department.

A standpipe system is An arrangement of piping, valves hose connections and other equipment installed in a building or structure, with the hose connections located in such a manner that water can be discharged in streams through attached hose and nozzles, for the purposes of extinguishing a fire, thereby protecting a building or structure and its contents in addition to protecting the occupants. This is accomplished by means of connections to water supply systems or by means of pump tanks and other equipment necessary to provide an adequate supply of water to the hose connections.”

It is, essentially, a way of delivering water from one area of the structure or facility to another so that we can fight the fire while at the same time shortening the length of the supply and attack lines. Standpipes can be an intricate or simple system, but the result is the same: water delivery. These systems can be vertical (which is the common type) or they can be horizontal.   

Below are four types of standpipes that you will find in use:

• Wet system. Here, water is in the pipes at all times and is supplied by a water source. The pressure in the system is constantly maintained.
• Automatic dry standpipe. Here, there is always air stored 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. In this system, air is stored inside the pipes, which can be pressurized or not be pressurized. Once an actuation device such as a manual pull station or an electrical switch is activated, water then enters the system.
• Manual dry standpipe. This type of system has only pipes feeding the system with no air or water in them. A fire apparatus must be used to supply the water through the standpipe.
