Fire Sprinkler Systems Featured “This
is the ideal location to feature residential fire sprinkler systems,”
said HFSC chair Gary Keith. “Builders have the opportunity
to see the complete system. In some rooms, the drywall is not installed,
so builders can see how the pipe system is installed. Other rooms
are finished, so they can see that sprinklers really are unobtrusive.”
Inside the
show, builders can visit HFSC’s booth (#216). HFSC will set
up a sprinkler demonstration where builders can view a sidewall
and ceiling mounted sprinkler during a simulated activation. Both
Viking and BlazeMaster Fire Sprinkler Systems will have product
information and representatives at the booth. According to Keith, the HFSC’s builder information focuses on builder trade-ups. “We’ve put together helpful material that informs builders about the use of trade-ups when fire sprinkler systems are installed and how fire sprinklers can reduce construction costs,” he said. Builders who want additional ideas are directed to the HFSC website where there is a builder section with detailed information and builder resources. “We look forward to this event because we can meet face-to-face with builders,” said Matthew Kuwatch, BlazeMaster marketing manager. “We talk to builders who have various levels of experience with fire sprinkler systems. Quite a few will share their own experiences while others have questions because the Show Village home is the first time they are seeing an installed system. The Builders’ Show also provides an opportunity for our representatives to learn more about builders and their industry.” |
