What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in Rutherglen

Storage on site

Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.

Exterior positions

Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.

How it works

When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.

Fire glazing rules in Scotland

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
