# RELIABLE FIRE PROTECTION FOR TOWER BLOCK ACCOMMODATION

Dependable fire safety for efficient installations in high-rise multifamily residences.

# RELIABLE FIRE PROTECTION FOR TOWER BLOCK ACCOMMODATION

Dependable fire safety for efficient installations in high-rise multifamily residences.

It is estimated that there are over 4,000 high rise concrete blocks in the UK alone. In recent years, the conversation around protecting these multi family homes with fire sprinklers has been significantly amplified, particularly in local government around the UK since the Grenfell Tower tragedy of 2017. An increasing number of structures are under review from local authorities and city councils, such as Citiscape’s tower block in Croydon in 2018.

It is important that these densely populated structures, with often busy communal areas receive adequate protection professionals. BlazeMaster CPVC is a proven success in tower block accommodation, thanks to its many advantages:

**Over steel:**

- Fits into tighter spaces
- Faster and easier installation
- Quieter
- Better flow rates (Hazen-Williams C Factor of 150 versus 120 for steel)
- Limits environmental impact
- 84% lighter than steel for installation savings
- Resists corrosion

 

**Over Polypropylene Random (PPR):**

- No Hot Works permit required
- No need for power tools to install, reducing injury risk
- Comprehensive installation training/free consulting
- UL listed for all light hazard occupancies

 

**Over generic CPVC:**

- Stronger and more durable, as verified by third-party testing
- Comprehensive FBC System Compatible Program
- Online training
- Unmatched industry support
