Introduction
The recent update to LPS 1276 – the standard governing tanks for sprinkler systems – now requires the use of valves certified to LPS 2083. This marks a significant step forward in enhancing fire protection standards for commercial buildings. Contractors are now required to install valves that meet this newly formalised benchmark – eliminating the grey area that has allowed non-compliant alternatives to slip through.
Keraflo’s Fire Valves, the first ever to achieve LPCB accreditation to LPS 2083, are leading the charge. Independently tested to the highest standards, they deliver long-term reliability in critical fire safety systems and come with an industry-first 10-year warranty.
How Keraflo Can Help
As Richard Braid, Keraflo Managing Director, explains, “It’s time for building owners and specifiers to reassess their systems. The use of non-compliant products is no longer just a risk, t’s a liability.”
In Conclusion
For fire safety professionals, this is a timely reminder that standards have shifted and product choice now carries serious compliance implications. Keraflo’s valves offer a stringent route to protection that meets today’s tougher requirements.
