Full Description

HVAC systems make buildings more livable...unless there's a fire. Then they have the potential to quickly spread smoke, hot gases, and flames to areas far beyond the fire's origin. They can also supply air that enhances fire development. Reduce the risks with the new, improved NFPA 90A.

This critical Standard prescribes requirements for fire protection of air handling systems to restrict the spread of smoke and fire, maintain the fire-resistive integrity of building components and elements, and minimize ignition sources and combustibility of system elements. Essential new provisions for installers include:Updated duct rules New parameters for removal of abandoned materialAdded requirements for limited combustible wires and cables in concealed and plenum spacesMake sure you're aware of the dangers posed by HVAC system - and the right ways to mitigate hazards - with this revised edition.
