NFPA 16(07)
Standard for the Installation of Foam-Water Sprinkler and Foam-Water Spray Systems
 Softbound, Approx. 32 pp., 2007 Edition
$45.00

Improve reliability of foam-water fire protection systems. Comply with the 2007 NFPA 16!

NFPA 16 outlines requirements for the design, installation, and maintenance of foam-water sprinkler and spray systems. Systems are to be designed with the required density for either foam or water application as the controlling factor, depending on the design purpose of the system.

Topics covered include:

  • System components
  • Water supplies
  • System design and installation
  • Acceptance tests
  • Inspection, testing, and maintenance

Among the technical changes in the 2007 edition are:

  • All definitions have been coordinated with the NFPA Glossary of Terms.
  • Requirements for automatic detection systems were extracted from NFPA 13 for pre-action systems and NFPA 15 for deluge systems.
  • Requirements for fire department connections were extracted from NFPA 13.
  • New requirements for foam proportioning systems have been added.
  • Guidance on the different types of proportioning systems has been included in the Annex.
