Seeing the difference can be one of the most effective ways to understand how home fire sprinklers work.

This side by side burn demonstration compares two similar rooms, one protected by home fire sprinklers and one without. As the fires develop, you can see how quickly the sprinkler activates and controls the fire, limiting its spread and the damage left behind.

It’s a simple demonstration with an important message: built in fire protection can change the outcome of a home fire.
