Recently, HFSC proudly welcomed State Farm Insurance
as a member of its Steering Committee (read
the story). State Farm
is the leading insurer of homes in the United States, providing
coverage to 28 million households. The company, which also provides
coverage in Canada, is the first from the insurance industry to
join HFSC in this leadership capacity.
Financial incentives support the strategy of increasing the availability
of sprinklered homes. For this reason, sustaining an active dialogue
with the insurance industry has been a key goal of HFSC since its
beginning. Recognizing the tremendous property protection afforded
by automatic fire sprinkler protection, State Farm and many other
insurance companies in North America provide additional premium
discounts to their customers whose homes are sprinklered.
Discounts vary company to company. Additionally, the discounts
often depend upon the extent to which the home is sprinklered (for
example, some insurance companies provide a greater
discount for systems that exceed the installation requirements
of NFPA 13D.)
