Frequently asked questions about Fire Stopping Cert

What is fire stopping?
Fire stopping is the process of sealing openings and joints in fire-resistant walls and floors to prevent the spread of fire and smoke. Common products include intumescent sealants, fire batts, fire collars for pipes, and fire pillows for cable trays.
Who can install fire stopping?
Fire stopping should be installed by trained operatives, preferably holding third-party certification such as FIRAS (Fire Industry Association) or IFC Certification. Incorrect installation can render fire barriers ineffective.
