HOME FIRE SPRINKLERS
PROOF IN THE DEMO Demonstrations of fires in unsprinklered
furnished rooms vs. sprinklered rooms offer dramatic proof of
the benefits of home fire sprinklers.
two decades, making the passage of a
statewide requirement in 2010 palatable to both the state's fire service and
the local homebuilding association.
Countering the popular homebuilder
claim that sprinkler requirements
stall housing development, California
built more than 130,000 single-family
homes and more than 150,000 multifamily homes between 2011, when the
statewide requirement took effect, and
2014, according to published sources.
"[Sprinkler education] is an
ongoing experience that you can't

Sprinkler Coalition to educate residents on sprinkler operation. "It's like
painting the Golden Gate Bridge. You
start at one end, and by the time you
get to the other end you've got to start
painting the bridge all over again.
We're never done."
FROM EDUCATORS TO
ADVOCATES
Over the decade following San
Clemente's ordinance, other U.S.
communities followed suit. In 1986,
Scottsdale, Arizona, began requiring sprinklers in its new homes, and
Prince George's County, Maryland,
passed a similar ordinance in 1992.
Both have researched the outcomes;
Scottsdale's property losses due to
fire are a fraction of the national
average (see "Desert Success" on
page 60), and Prince George's County
has experienced no fire deaths in its
sprinklered homes since the ordinance was passed.
"We didn't use the word 'advocacy'
back then, but where appropriate,
we assisted those who tried to put
sprinkler provisions forward," says
Gary Keith, former NFPA vice president of Field Operations and Education
who joined NFPA's staff in 1995 and
