Live fire demonstration shows danger of home fires, value of sprinklers
With the vast majority of U.S. fire deaths occurring in homes, a recent live fire demonstration vividly showed the potential deadly destruction from home fires compared to the life-saving impact of home fire sprinklers. The event, held by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the Massachusetts Fire Sprinkler Coalition, informed members of the Massachusetts Building Commissioners and Inspectors Association about home fire risks and the home fire sprinkler solution.
