Riser Room Services FAQs
What is a riser room and why does it need service?
A riser room houses the vertical water supply pipes that distribute water to different floors of a multi-story building. These rooms contain valves, pressure regulators, backflow preventers, and water meters. Regular service ensures proper water pressure on all floors, prevents leaks, and maintains code compliance.
What riser room services do you provide?
We provide riser room pipe repair and replacement, valve replacement, pressure regulator service, backflow preventer testing, water meter installation, copper and PEX repiping, insulation, and complete riser room renovations. We work with property managers, building owners, and general contractors throughout Charlotte.
How often should riser rooms be inspected?
We recommend annual riser room inspections for commercial and multi-family buildings. Properties with older copper or galvanized risers, buildings with known pressure issues, or facilities with high water usage may benefit from semi-annual inspections. Regular checks prevent costly emergency repairs and water damage.
Can you repipe a riser room without shutting down the building?
In many cases, we can phase the work to minimize disruption. We plan riser room repiping in stages, shutting down water to one riser at a time while other floors maintain service. For critical facilities, we can schedule work during off-hours or weekends. We coordinate closely with property management.
Do you handle backflow preventer testing in riser rooms?
Yes. We are certified to test, repair, and replace backflow prevention devices as required by Charlotte Water and Mecklenburg County. Annual backflow testing is mandatory for commercial properties. We handle the testing and submit the required documentation directly to the water authority on your behalf.
