Fire resistance solutions, Built-in air conditioner protection

Air conditioning systems are vital arteries in contemporary buildings, yet recessed split units are often the “greatly overlooked” elements in fire protection strategies. The GB-SPLIT REI 120 protection system fills this gap. Thanks to the use of intumescent tapes on the collars and a certified structure measuring 600 × 600 × 400 mm, it allows the installation of recessed indoor units while maintaining the protective continuity of the floor slab. It is a strategic solution for architects who must manage the delicate balance between mechanical systems (HVAC) and horizontal compartmentation, ensuring passive fire protection of the highest level.
