Fire Sprinkler Systems

Automatic Sprinkler systems are the most reliable life safety and building protection feature available.      A properly installed and maintained sprinkler system provides the highest level of life safety protection and continues to contribute to saving thousands of lives across the country.  By adopting nationally recognized safety codes and requiring sprinkler certification for people who design, install, maintain, repair and test water based fire protection systems, Vermont is a safer place to live, work, and play
