Don’t believe the myths about automatic fire sprinklers!

Automatic sprinkler systems have been highly effective in protecting life and property for well over 100 years. But there are still some myths out there about the operation and effectiveness of fire sprinklers.

I’ve created a page on this site that debunks some of those myths: Myths and Facts about Automatic Fire Sprinklers.

For more information, you can also visit the Sprinklerfitters UA Local 669 web site, the National Fire Sprinkler Association’s web site, and the Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition’s web site
