Antifreeze for Wet Fire Sprinkler Systems

FSS ProTect GL and FSS ProTect PG are non-toxic antifreezes designed specifically for wet fire protection systems. These bio-stable products are used in place of water and other water-like fluids in sprinkler systems where freezing may either cause damage or interfere with the functioning of systems or equipment. All raw materials are GRAS approved (generally regarded as safe) for accidental animal ingestion, yet resist the growth of bio-mass through its bacteria-static composition.

 

 

FSS ProTect GL

FFS ProTect GL is a Glycerin based material which is compatible with all approved types of pipe, including CPVC sprinkler pipe and fittings.

FSS ProTect PG

FSS ProTect PG is a Propylene Glycol based material which is compatible with all approved types of sprinkler systems, with the exception of CPVC.
