Case Study: Lubrizol Advanced Materials Benefits from BlazeMaster® CPVC Building Updates

When renovating a 5,000-square-foot office building, contractors installed a BlazeMaster® fire sprinkler system instead of steel to reduce costs and labor while allowing for faster on-site design changes. Contractors can deliver costs savings of up to 30% by using BlazeMaster CPVC instead of metal piping.

In retrofitting the Lubrizol building, the contractor found that the existing BlazeMaster® fire sprinkler system – installed about three decades before – was still in excellent condition. A key reason: Unlike steel pipe, BlazeMaster CPVC resists corrosion, scaling and Microbiologically Induced Corrosion (MIC).
