Sam Davis, a homebuilder in Florida,
is a strong believer in the value of
sprinklers. Over the years, he's installed
sprinklers in dozens of homes and takes
every opportunity to educate his clients

a fire. I hope it never happens, but I'm
waiting for the day when I get a call from

have been adopted by several hundred

and even though sprinklers are required
in all new homes in California, Maryland, and the District of Columbia, the
price tag associated with installation
remains a point of uncertainty and a
potential barrier to broader adoption.
