Breeching Inlet

A Breeching Inlet is a vital fire safety component, allowing fire services to externally pressurize a building’s internal fire main during emergencies. Wall-mounted and typically installed at accessible locations, it enables rapid connection to the fire department’s equipment, ensuring a steady water supply to the internal firefighting system.
