Firestopping Tested Detail: HPE Sealant & QIF Fire Sleeve for CPVC Pipes

Quelfire’s products are all independently tested at Warringtonfire, which is a UKAS accredited certification body. A significant proportion of annual investment goes into research and development in order to provide the construction industry with primary test evidence over engineering judgements. In certain countries like Wales, sprinkler pipes are now becoming mandatory. Sprinkler pipes are a good active fire protection measure. However, if fire does bypass them and hits the fire-separating element, you are going to need firestopping around the pipe because it will soften and melt. In this short video, Alec Purdie (Technical Manager) discusses CPVC pipes and the considerations that firestoppers need to be aware of, and our tested scope of application. The right firestopping system, installed correctly, saves lives. At Quelfire, we have a friendly and honest team who are always willing to help with problems faced by the construction industry. We provide support from planning through design to installation and aim to answer any enquiries within one working day. -------------------------------------------- Read our article: https://quelfire.co.uk/knowledge-advi...
