Astral Firepro Is made from a Specially Engineered Plastic Called Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC).

Astral Fire Pro possesses a Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI) of 60, indicating that it requires 60% oxygen concentration to melt when exposed to fire. Given that the atmosphere typically contains 20% oxygen, a forced combustion occurs on the outer surface of CPVC, leading to charring of the pipe. Interestingly, this charring effect acts as a protective layer for the inner surface of the pipe.

Astral Fire Pro is suitable for use in wet sprinkler piping systems within light hazard occupancies, as defined by NFPA 13. It meets the necessary requirements and standards for such applications, providing a reliable and effective solution for fire protection in these types of environments.

Astral Fire Pro holds UL and ISI listings for its pipes and fittings. This indicates that they have undergone rigorous testing and meet the quality and safety standards set by these organizations. Furthermore, Fire Pro has been given approval from individual state and city fire departments, allowing its usage in specific states and cities. These approvals highlight the recognition and acceptance of Astral Firepro's compliance with fire safety regulations in those particular regions.

Astral Fire Pro offers cost-saving advantages across various aspects. Firstly, it simplifies installation, eliminating the need for highly skilled workers and thereby reducing installation costs. Additionally, Astral Fire Pro features a smooth internal surface with a high C value of 150. This allows for hydraulic calculations that can optimize the pipe size, potentially leading to cost savings in materials. Moreover, as Astral Firepro is resistant to corrosion, it entails lower maintenance costs over time compared to alternative piping materials. These combined benefits contribute to cost reduction and overall efficiency in fire sprinkler system installations.
