Subject: RE: Pipe Sleeves

Where we do penetrate the rated walls we have that covered by the proper
firestop system - some have sleeves and some don't depending on wall and
pipe type, etc. But, the walls that are not rated, are there any
requirements for sleeves anywhere?

Bobby,

I would suggest that the use of a sleeve depends on the UL Through
Penetration System you choose to use for the penetration.  Some do not
require the use of sleeves.

Subject: Pipe Sleeves

We have an existing school we are sprinkling. When we pass through a block
wall, non-rated (smoke, fire etc.) we plan on providing clearance or a flex
coupling within a foot of the wall on both sides of the wall. Does it say
anywhere we have to use sleeves for block walls? We will be using Sch. 10 &
40 pipe as well as CPVC. I can't seem to find anything other than NFPA 13 -
2007 9.3.4.3 "Where clearance is provided by a pipe sleeve.." But nothing
requiring one.

 

Thank you in advance.
