My biggest worry we put all these systems in homes which will probably
not need them for 30-40 years and will they work when called on?
But the real problem is existing housing what has been done to protect
those who need it most.
How many times in fatal fires no working smoke detectors and the same
thing will happen with sprinklers
the same people who need them the most will be the ones to turn them
off and not maintain them.
I wonder how many 100% sprinkled community's over the last 10 years I
could walk into and find sprinklers turned off and smokes disabled.
how many GFCI and Arc Faults will work???
