FIRE & LIFE SAFETY EDUCATION
Fire Sprinklers Protect Your Home and Your Family.
Most people don't realize that 8 out of 10 fire deaths occur in the home. They usually happen at night when you and your family are asleep. Fires are also fast; they can go from a tiny flame to total destruction in as little as three minutes. Fire sprinklers can suppress and often extinguish a fire before the fire department arrives, giving your family time to escape.

Fire Education
Home fire sprinklers are very technologically advanced, but the basic way they work is very simple. Fire sprinklers have no moving parts and act simply as a water “plug” that releases at a particular temperature.
Trade-ups can increase fire safety, control municipal operating expenses and lower construction costs. The best time to take advantage of the trade-up concept for subdivision development savings is prior to submitting subdivision plans. When proper subdivision and development options are provided, development costs can be reduced. Sprinklered developments provide an excellent opportunity to provide increased fire safety.
The best time to install sprinklers in homes is when the homes are being planned and built. Key to making that happen is working with builders and developers to show that fire sprinklers are not only affordable but also can help their businesses. To get the message out, 5Alarm has developed the materials to provide homebuilders with honest, unbiased information.
