2013 NFPA 13 and 2011 NFPA 25 Standard Set

Now updated, the 2013 NFPA 13 and 2011 NFPA 25 Set is the best value for sprinkler system professionals.

Sprinklers save lives, but improper maintenance can undermine even the best designed water-based extinguishing systems. To make sure sprinklers will respond as intended when they're needed most, the 2013 NFPA 13: Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems requires installing contractors to leave a copy of NFPA 25: Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems with property owners.

Satisfy NFPA 13 rules and improve fire protection with this up-to-date Set:

• The 2013 NFPA 13: Installation of Sprinkler Systems reflects the challenges of fire protection in today's built environment, with the latest requirements for automatic sprinkler system design, installation, and acceptance testing; hanging and bracing systems; underground piping; and seismic protection. Changes include combined in-rack and ceiling sprinkler requirements to streamline referencing, new Chapter 21 on alternative storage approaches, and new requirements concerning nonmetallic piping. (Softbound, Approx. 452 pp., 2013)
• The 2011 NFPA 25 has the latest requirements for the care of sprinkler systems including fixed water spray and foam-water systems, standpipe and hose systems, fire pumps, piping and appurtenances, and water storage tanks. Major changes in this edition include updated testing frequencies, clarification of responsibilities for building owners and their designated representatives, and new terms that define "critical deficiencies" and "noncritical deficiencies" to help maintainers determine corrective actions and prioritize repairs.

Correct sprinkler installation is only the beginning. System reliability depends on proper maintenance, too. Be fully prepared to optimize sprinkler system integrity and reliability with the NFPA 13 and NFPA 25 Set. Save 15% -- and get your best value on essential water-based fire protection documents.
