Tested and Proven
Our 1,000 Gallon Sprinkler System Test Rig in our warehouse in Exton, PA was designed specifically to test the viability – and ultimately the effectiveness – of VpCI® to prevent corrosion in Fire Sprinkler Systems. Over the years, we’ve run hundreds of documented tests – both independently and in conjunction with 3rd parties – that have resulted in Vapor Pipe Shield’s engineered design and UL Listing.
