This is the only OH listing for CPVc I know of.

           BlazeMaster® CPVC Now in Ordinary Hazard Applications

a.. Change: An exception to Section 3-3.5 of NFPA 13 was implemented in its 1999 edition which allows BlazeMaster® CPVC to protect ordinary hazard rooms of otherwise light hazard occupancies where the room does not exceed 400 ft2. Use the same installation guidelines as used for light hazard installations for both concealed and exposed ordinary hazard applications.


b.. Benefit: Fewer transitions between BlazeMaster® piping and other piping systems or materials.


c.. Examples: Light hazard buildings such as schools, apartments and hotels that contain ordinary hazards rooms such as storage areas, laundry facilities, or mechanical rooms that do not exceed 400 ft2.

Subject: RE: CPVC use in Marine fire sprinkler System.


USA rules only allow it in use for light hazard occupancy, like nursing
homes, offices with quick response sprinklers. Usually it is above a ceiling
or in a soffit to keep the pipe protected. Does this help?

Forum,

         is there a ruling associated within the marine area for the
protection of passengers (8) on a 30metre vessel required to have sprinklers

installed, we are  using CPVC.  CPVC is used due to the vessel being
renovated, and comes under the rule here in Australia for protection to
USLC-2B classification, the use of steel piping is/was virtually impossible.

Any assistance with this curly one, would be appreciated.

Regards,

John Luxford.
