The theme being “All about you”, GF Piping Systems presents itself as a system provider of products for drinking water applications at IFH/Intherm from 8 to 11 April 2014 in Nuremberg. The focus is on system solutions for all aspects of water from abstraction to distribution and all the way to the point of consumption, as well as the associated living comfort.
Requirements in terms of drinking water hygiene are steadily increasing. In order to reduce health risks from contamination and bacteria for end consumers, the drinking water must be transported with extreme care. Starting with planning and continuing on to installation of the piping system, the highest level of quality must be warranted throughout.
GF Piping Systems meets challenges posed by the new drinking water hygiene regulation with system solutions for drinking water installations and hygiene. On booth 7A.403 at IFH/Intherm GF Piping Systems showcases products for the drinking water distribution in buildings, from proven systems like the JRG Sanipex classic and MT to the innovative diaphragmalysis technology Hycleen Des 30.
Products from GF Piping Systems are valued by building services engineers and operators for their superior quality and easy installation and maintenance. End users appreciate having clean drinking water that meets the highest hygiene standards, as well as having a constant water pressure at every tapping point in the entire building.
As the living comfort is becoming an increasingly important factor in life nowadays, living space is supposed to be practical and comfortable. This includes aspects that people do not primarily perceive. GF Piping Systems makes this apparent to visitors at the IFH/Intherm with a sound booth in which they hear how different connection types and materials affect flow noise.

BlazeMaster® Fire Sprinkler Systems Marks 30-Year Milestone with Two New Distinctions
CLEVELAND, January 28, 2014 – For more than 30 years, dependability, ease-of-use and cost efficiency have been the cornerstones of The Lubrizol Corporation’s BlazeMaster® Fire Sprinkler Systems, the fire protection industry’s preferred pipe and fittings for new construction and retrofitting applications. An innovation from Lubrizol CPVC products, BlazeMaster systems continue to earn notable accolades with a new ASTM material classification and the Home Builder Executive’s Gold Innovation Award.
Since its introduction to the marketplace in 1984, BlazeMaster pipe and fittings have paved the way for CPVC in the fire protection market by continuously demonstrating its value as a viable, versatile fire protection solution for light hazard construction applications. Even after three decades of leadership, Lubrizol CPVC innovators are still pushing the BlazeMaster system to new levels of excellence, achieving the pressure/temperature rating of 100 psi at 180 degrees to meet the revised ASTM F441-4120-06 material classification. Additionally, BlazeMaster pipe and fittings are a UL-listed CPVC system for use in exposed composite wood joist basement applications.
Distinctions like these, as well as a demonstrated ability to provide strength under pressure, have helped the BlazeMaster system earn the coveted Home Builder Executive’s Gold Innovation Award for two consecutive years. As a cost-effective, less labor-intensive and durable solution for light-hazard construction applications, BlazeMaster systems have opened new opportunities for creating safer living and working spaces. BlazeMaster systems, along with other innovations from Lubrizol CPVC, will be highlighted at the 2014 NAHB International Builders’ Show February 4-6 in Las Vegas, booth #C1839.

Aquatherm continues to expand its ecofriendly reach with the arrival of its newest product: 4-in. Aquatherm Blue Pipe® SDR 17.6 faser-composite. This new offering allows for more cost effective installation and increased efficiency in applications such as chilled water, geothermal, and condenser water, among others.
Aquatherm Blue Pipe SDR 17.6 was initially introduced in 6-in. to 24-in.-diameter. However, Aquatherm responded to customer demand for this smaller diameter pipe for water mains applications and similar installations. Standard dimension ratio (SDR) is the ratio of pipe diameter to wall thickness. Aquatherm manufactures pipe in SDRs of 7.4, 11 and 17.6. The SDR 17.6 pipe delivers roughly a 20% higher flow volume than SDR 11 at a lower cost and reduces pipe weight by 35%.
All Aquatherm polypropylene pipe (PP-R) systems are connected via heat fusion – which bonds pipe and fitting at a molecular level, creating a connection that lasts a lifetime and eliminates toxic materials, glues, resins, and open flames from piping installations. The faser-composite layer is Aquatherm’s proprietary blend of fiberglass and PP-R, which allows the pipe to remain rigid at higher temperatures and helps to limit expansion and contraction.
While Aquatherm piping systems have been proven around the world for 40 years, they have increasingly been specified in a wide variety of North American PHVAC systems and applications in commercial, government, industrial and residential projects. Aquatherm Blue Pipe is an alternative to steel and copper pipe and is non-corrosive, nontoxic, does not contain phthalates or BPA, is lead-free, and chemically inert. Additionally, Aquatherm PP-R has a low friction factor, requires less energy to manufacture than other piping products, and is fully recyclable.
