FEMA Endorses Residential Fire Sprinklers
(Plumbing & Mechanical Magazine - October 2009)
After 30 years of testing, research and development, the Federal Emergency Management Agency U.S. Fire
Administration has announced its support of the 2009 International Residential Code, which mandates the
installation of fire sprinklers in all new homes beginning 2011.
About 90 percent of all fires occur in the home, fueled by new lightweight construction and more flammable
home contents. Due to these two factors, the time available to escape a house fire has lessened from 17
minutes 20 years ago to three minutes today, according to a cost-benefit analysis by FEMA.
