This course covers the NFPA standards requiring water-based fire protection systems to be protected against freezing. It exams the conditions that trigger mandatory freeze protection along with the approved options for meeting the requirement. The design limitations and economic impact (including maintenance) of using dry pipe systems, preaction systems, insulation, heat tracing, antifreeze solutions, and other potential protection methods will be examined. Participants learn to identify and apply the items needed to be considered when making a choice on how best to provide adequate protection. Attendees will also examine the consequences of inadequate freeze protection versus the building owners need for dependable and cost-effective fire protection.
