·         Semi-automatic dry standpipe with air stored inside the pipes, which can be either pressurized or not pressurized; With it water then enters the system, when an actuation device such as a manual pull station or an electrical switch is activated.
·         Manual dry standpipe system only with pipes feeding the system; With neither air nor water in them; For water to be supplied through the standpipe, a fire apparatus must be used.
