Fires in the home pose one of the biggest threats to the people of your community. Home fire sprinklers are a proven way to protect lives and property against fires at home. The technology responds quickly to reduce the heat, flames, and smoke from a fire, giving families valuable time to get to safety.
As the world continues to deal with the ongoing demands of COVID-19, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition are taking Home Fire Sprinkler Week virtual.
This year, Home Fire Sprinkler Week will take place May 16-22. Each day will have a different theme and videos you can access:
- Monday, May 17 - Fire is Fast!
- Tuesday, May 18 - Fire Sprinklers Are Part of Fire-Safe Communities
- Wednesday, May 19 - It's Easy to Live with Home Fire Sprinklers
- Thursday, May 20 - Fire Sprinklers are Smart and Green
- Friday, May 21 - Protect What You Value Most
Home fire sprinklers protect the lives of residents and firefighters by keeping fires small and by giving residents more time to escape a fire. Homeowners can install these in new or existing homes.
