A Siamese connection is a specific type of fire department connection (FDC) commonly used in buildings to provide a dedicated point for firefighters to connect hoses and pump water into the building's fire protection system. It typically consists of two inlets that merge into a single outlet. Here are reasons why Siamese connections are used and their significance:
-
Increased Water Supply:
- Siamese connections allow firefighters to connect multiple hoses to the building's fire protection system simultaneously. This can significantly increase the water supply available for firefighting efforts.
-
Efficient Firefighting Operations:
- By using Siamese connections, the fire department can establish a quick and efficient water supply without having to rely solely on internal building systems. This is crucial for controlling and extinguishing fires in a timely manner.

Siamese signs – The signs are designed to inform 1st respondends about Siamese connection location and type of connection. The Fire Department Connection, also commonly known as the Siamese connection, is an important component found on most sprinkler and standpipe systems. When a fire sprinkler system activates, the FDC provides a means for firefighters to connect hose lines to supplement the fire sprinkler system's domestic water supply. We can say it is called two for one. In case one side of the Siamese does not work, the other one will support it.

Siamese connections is a fire department connection. One can find a fire department connection in many high rise building and new constructions. Those are pipes in front of buildings painted red, green, and yellow and look like fire hydrants. They are used by the fire department crew to fight fires.
Why it is called “Siamese”? They are called so, because of their visual similarity to Siamese twins since they encompass two pipe openings for a single pipe that leads either to the building’s standpipe, a vertical water pipe that leads all the way to the top of the building, or the building’s sprinkler system, or both. One opening is a backup for the other, in case the first is defective, though it can also be connected to a second hose if more pressure is needed.
