FIRE RATED CONSTRUCTION
DESIGN CRITERIA
Before penetrating fire-rated walls or partitions
with CPVC piping, consult the local building
official in your area. Plastic water piping systems
typically are less of a concern with respect to
their use in fire-rated construction than DWV
pipes. Bow FlowGuard Gold
®
typically meets the
25/50 flame spread/smoke developed
requirements for use in plenums and fire rated
construction, and may penetrate fire walls if
used with an approved fire stop system.
