New
York State regulators have delayed a vote on a measure that will require the
installation of fire sprinklers in all new one- and two-family homes and
townhomes built in New York. NYSAR supports fire sprinklers and consumer
education about the benefits of a sprinkler system, but is opposed to mandating
their installation. Last week, NYSAR launched an all-member Call for Action
opposing the proposed mandate. Take action in opposition to this proposal by

NYSAR also launched media campaign including a radio commercial, newspaper ads
and a website in opposition to this mandate. A link to the radio commercial and
more information including fire sprinkler facts and poll results can be found
