## **Which Pipe is Best for Sprinkler System Design?**

Not all fire sprinkler pipes are the same. The quality and reliability of the[piping material](https://www.blazemaster.com/en-in/cpvc-vs-other-systems) in your fire sprinkler system can make all the difference in the event of an emergency.

As the most specified non-metallic system in the world, BlazeMaster® Fire Protection Systems exceed global performance and manufacturing standards for all CPVC systems. Its reliability, compatibility and strength make it the preferred choice.

BlazeMaster CPVC[pipe and fittings](https://www.blazemaster.com/en-in/fire-fighting-system-specification?hsLang=en-in), as manufactured by Ashirvad, are UL and BIS listed for wet fire sprinkler systems. (It is recommended to refer to individual manufacturers’ installation instructions for specific listings and approvals.)

## **CPVC vs Steel**

While steel fire protection systems have been considered the norm for a long time, chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) has changed expectations of what a fire safety system should be capable of, whether it’s made of metal or plastic.

Here are six reasons why CPVC is not only a safe option, but can outperform steel fire sprinkler systems in key areas:

Among BlazeMaster CPVC’s many benefits, there are a great number of cost-saving considerations that provide the advantage during installation.

 

**Labour costs - **BlazeMaster CPVC’s solvent-weld jointing system. This requires significantly fewer bodies on the ground than traditional steel, and does not require traditional welding skills either. 

 

**Equipment and Materials** - Thanks to the solvent cement welding technique, heavy electric machinery or hot works on site is a thing of the past. Not only does this allow for a safer working environment for labourers and occupants, but the faster transportation, delivery and installation of your new fire sprinkler system will create huge savings.

 

**Saving Time **- It’s essential to plan your timeline out as accurately as possible, as missing deadlines can jeopardize current and future projects. Using BlazeMaster CPVC, individuals on-site can achieve a great deal of productivity over a shorter period of time, compared to steel.

 

**Long Term Savings** - BlazeMaster CPVC’s proven performance and reliability also offer long term cost-saving advantages, as its corrosion resistance allows for years of optimum service with less need for maintenance and repairs.
