Home Fire Sprinklers Protect Everyone
The quicker we extinguish fires, the less we have to deal with cancer-causing contamination and potential injury. Home fire sprinklers mean less exposure for the firefighters and fire investigators. Building with home fire sprinklers is a great idea that can save lives and prevent injuries. But you may have questions. Our website is designed to provide the fire service with the tools and information you need to help your community understand the benefits of home fire sprinklers. All materials are free to download and use.

The Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition Community Impact Tool
This tool combines national and local data to present a comprehensive view of the true costs of fire. Those involved in decision making about local fire codes, including AHJs and local officials, can gain better insight into the cost and safety benefits of home fire sprinklers and their impact on community risk reduction.
The data are formatted and output for presentation to local officials and builders/developers on the benefits of requiring fire sprinklers in new developments and putting or keeping it in the local codes.
