Thinking of replacing some carpet in your Waves Unit?
If so, then please be aware that there are fire safety requirements issued by Building Codes Australia.
Waves is a Class-2 building. We do not have fire-sprinklers within Units.
This extract from the Minimum CRF table as provided by Building Codes Australia shows that Units should have carpets/floor coverings with a CRF of at least 2.2
The Brochure from Building Codes Australia can be downloaded here:-
You should advise any retailer of the 2.2 CRF minimum when selecting carpets.
Installing a carpet that does not meet the recommended standards places you at risk in case of a fire. It would not impact other units within the building.
