When Montrose County set out to restore its 100-year-old courthouse—a registered historic landmark—updating the building’s fire protection system was a top priority. The challenge: install a modern sprinkler system without disturbing the architectural integrity of the 45,000 square-foot structure.

Fox Valley Fire Protection chose BlazeMaster® Fire Protection Systems to meet the demands of the retrofit. Lightweight and easy to install, BlazeMaster CPVC made it easier to navigate around original wood framing and reduce the load on the century-old building. Compared to steel pipe, it helped the team cut installation time and reduce material costs by 60%.
