Antifreeze systems equipped with a backflow preventer must include an expansion chamber to accommodate the expansion of the antifreeze solution due to temperature changes. This prevents excessive pressure buildup that could damage the system or cause unintended discharge.
References: NFPA 13 and NFPA 25 requirements for antifreeze systems in sprinkler installations, emphasizing safety features to accommodate the physical properties of antifreeze solutions.
