“
Built for Life” is
an ambitious, ongoing national campaign to educate builders,
designers and developers about automatic fire sprinkler systems
for homes and to increase homebuyer interest in the systems.
Underway for more than a year now, Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition’s “Built
for Life” program has many facets and is now gaining
support from other safety groups.
The program encourages partnerships
among the building community, sprinkler contractors and fire
service. It also promotes
targeted outreach to homeowners to generate interest in homes
with installed
fire sprinkler systems.
“Our goal for this program is very straightforward,” said
HFSC Communications Manager Peg Paul, who oversees the campaign. “By
increasing interest in home fire sprinkler systems among
all the target audiences, we will ultimately help save lives
and
protect the valuable belongings that people treasure.” |
