BROCHURE HIGHLIGHTS
UNIQUE ATTRIBUTES OF
BLAZEMASTER® CPVC FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEMS
CLEVELAND, OH – A brochure entitled “What’s in a Name?” outlines the attributes of BlazeMaster® CPVC fire sprinkler systems which are Listed and approved for more types of applications than any other non-metallic pipe. The brochure describes why more and more engineers and fire sprinkler contractors are specifying this system for a multitude of light hazard applications. The piece also documents how the BlazeMaster CPVC system differs from the competition, including a stringent quality assurance program with extensive product testing protocols.
Through tables and graphs, the brochure compares BlazeMaster pipe and fittings to other CPVC pipe and fittings. Among other things, a BlazeMaster CPVC system is the only one to be ULC or CUL Listed, LPC approved, and Listed for use in conjunction with a Tyco attic sprinkler head. It also is the only one approved for use with all Tyco and Viking combustible concealed sprinklers.
BlazeMaster pipe is available in sizes up to 3” in diameter - another point of differentiation highlighted in the brochure. BlazeMaster fire sprinkler systems also offer contractors and engineers a technical service department for problem solving, a formal installation training program and a dedicated fire sprinkler consultant sales force.
The brochure goes on to summarize advantages of BlazeMaster pipe versus pipe processed from non-BlazeMaster CPVC compound in seven areas: long term pressure-bearing capability, impact strength, product consistency, code acceptance, product support, track record and product enhancements. Based on 40+ years of CPVC experience, BlazeMaster CPVC systems provide a clear advantage in all of these categories.
