Described are riser assemblies suitable for use with fluid dispensers. The assemblies include a container partially circumscribing a reservoir configured to contain a pressurized fluid, the container having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet disposed therethrough. The assemblies may further include a signal processor situateable outside the container that is configured to receive a signal. The signal processor may be operatively connectable to a control valve that is operatively connectable to the fluid dispenser. The control valve may be configured to selectively control expulsion of the fluid through the fluid dispenser in response to the signal received by the signal processor. Embodiments of the riser assemblies include a utility conduit disposed at least partially within the reservoir and configured to enable secondary use of a resource from within the riser assembly and/or to accommodate transport and securing of the riser assemblies for use.
