Pleasing the Client: Budget-Friendly Fire Suppression

Designing an abode or commercial headquarters goes far beyond the building’s overall presentation. Architects are responsible for creating experiences, enhancing the way we all go about our lives. It’s important for construction professionals to make safety and wellbeing for occupants front of mind, with a keen eye on budgets.

 

It’s time to get started with BlazeMaster CPVC, implementing world-leading fire safety in your building designs. While it’s prestigious, it’s also great practice, especially for cost-conscious professionals of architecture. Here are some proven, practical advantages to incorporating BlazeMaster CPVC in your fire safety systems, all of which have the financial benefit to give you the edge.

 

Effectiveness vs Traditional Steel

BlazeMaster CPVC is the most specified non-metallic fire sprinkler piping system in the world. It is popular with building owners for its efficient installation and strong resistance to microbial corrosion, however it has a number of features which the cost-savvy Architect can employ to their financial advantage. 

 

Blazemaster CPVC can, with proper installation, support continuous temperatures and pressures in areas where ambient temperatures are within the range of 2°C to 65°C (25°F to 150°F). This is achieved with pipe fittings from 1.9cm to no more than 7.6cm.

 

To Architects, this means flexibility; to plan fire safety systems that make the most of those difficult to reach and impossible to see areas. This means reaching areas other pipe systems don’t for optimum safety throughout the structure. This also means less money spent on materials, with simpler, straightforward installations. Thanks to BlazeMaster CPVC’s optimum hydraulic capability, Architects can cut down on spend for materials without cutting corners on safety in every room.

 

Speed of Installation

When it comes to approving designs, it’s important to present a schedule that optimises every moment on site. Installing CPVC takes far less time to install than its metallic counterparts, thanks to solvent cement welding. This fast, simple process cuts down significantly on man-hours, in some cases up to 33.7%.

 

BlazeMaster CPVC presents an opportunity to put forward a smart, compliant design that saves time and money on materials and labour. To Architects, that means efficient designs, a smooth project and an iconic, progressive build.

 

Renewing Systems Without Compromising on Design

Budget-friendly fire suppression with BlazeMaster is not only beneficial to new builds; the rise in fire protection specification has also given current residences the chance to optimise their own systems with BlazeMaster fire protection system. 

 

Barton Village at City West, Manchester received a quick, clean installation of BlazeMaster CPVC fire sprinklers as part of its refurbishment with Protect Twenty Four. This was required under a very strict turnaround time, in order to maximise savings. The project has already delivered life-saving results in the case of one very fortunate Barton Village resident Eunice Kelly, who’s life was saved by fire sprinklers when her bedroom caught fire. Her story has fuelled a call for all UK high rise residences to be installed with fire sprinklers.

 

Consider delivering BlazeMaster CPVC to your retrofit and redesign projects and take advantage of the cost-saving opportunities. Improve standards of compliance and safety and complete your project with a profitable conclusion.
