Time saved / Keep the penetration register
Fire seal penetration register, kept as you go
Log each service penetration as it is sealed, in the template’s own columns, so the schedule for the fire seal certificate is ready at handover.
Every penetration you seal needs a line on the schedule at handover. Rebuilt from photos at the end, it takes days.

Estimate for a 6-month electrical job with 10 people on it, each job that seals penetrations. Set your own job.
The risk it heads off
- The fire seal certificate cannot issue without a schedule of every penetration.The schedule builds as you seal each penetration, with a photo.
- A penetration is closed up with no photo.The photo is taken at the seal, from the phone.
