FACT:
The Proof is in the ESR
An Evaluation Service Report (ESR) was recently issued by UL® for our EZ Path® Fire-Rated Pathways confirming code compliance with the International Building Code® (IBC), International Fire Code® (IFC), and NFPA 101, “LifeSafety Code®” (LSC). The report goes on to confirm that, when properly installed, the device is exempt from ongoing maintenance.
FACT:
Only EZ Path® Pathways Are Maintenance-Free.
EZ Path® Fire-Rated Pathways are the only self-sealing fire and smoke devices that are exempt from maintenance requirements.* EZ Path® Pathways have no moving parts and require no action to activate the internal sealing mechanism, making them the only rated firestop device that are compliant right out of the box.
FACT:
Only EZ Path® Pathways Minimize the Spread of HAI’s.
In the healthcare physical environment, EZ Path® Fire-Rated Pathways can help minimize the spread of Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI’s). EZ Path® Fire-Rated Pathways let you remotely pull cables through multiple barriers at once, decreasing the number of times the occupied space is exposed to potential pathogens. Since they also require no ongoing maintenance, they can help limit liability by reducing unnecessary trips above the drop ceiling or in concealed spaces where pathogens can become airborne.
