NOTICE
THIS BUILDING CONTAINS A CPVC FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEM. THIS CPVC FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEM IS A LIFE SAFETY ASSEMBLY AND MUST BE TREATED CAREFULLY. READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE ANY ACTIVITY WHICH COULD CONTACT THIS SYSTEM:
• DO NOT stack, support, hang equipment, or hang flexible wire/cable, especially communications cable, or other material on the fire sprinkler system.
• ONLY system compatible materials should be used in contact with this system. For a list of products that have been tested and verified as compatible, consult the FBCTM System Compatible Program information at www.fbcsystemcompatible.com. If the product in question is not identified in the System Compatibility Program, Lubrizol recommends, as does TYCO, that the chemical compatibility be verified with the manufacturer of the product in question.
• DO NOT expose CPVC products to incompatible substances, such as cutting oils, non-water based paints, packing oils, tradi- tional pipe thread paste and dope, fungicides, termiticides, insecticides, detergents, building caulks, adhesive tape, solder flux, flexible wire/cable (with special consideration for communications cabling), and non-approved spray foam insulation materials.
• DO NOT expose CPVC products to edible oils, solvents, or glycol-based anti-freeze fluids.
• DO NOT expose CPVC products to open flame, solder, and soldering flux.
• DO NOT drop, distort, or impact CPVC products or allow objects to be dropped on them.
• DO NOT handle CPVC products with gloves contaminated with oils (hydrocarbons) or other incompatible materials.
Failure to follow this notice may cause cracks or fractures to develop in CPVC products resulting in property damage due to leaks or flooding. The presence of any visible cracks may require partial or full system replacement. For ad- ditional information contact the general contractor or the fire sprinkler system installer.
