Re: Code-change alert: Fire sprinklers in all new homes

Generally speaking, sprinklers will save property and save LIVES. Builders are using cheaper materials that will not hold up in a fire. For the person who said the sprinkler line froze.....that's a builder's fault for not making sure it was installed properly not the sprinkler's fault. Have a better arguement than "they made us put them in." Stop the whining and build a quality product. I live in a house where the builder was a complete moron when it came to fixing a simple sliding glass door that wasn't installed properly to begin with. It bound on the frame when it was being opened and closed. The builder came out and said there was nothing wrong with it. I eventually replaced the door and there was no header above the door. DUMB ASS builder and this was the model home. I don't want to hear builder's complain because they cause their own problems. Educate people on the benfits of sprinklers and let the consumer be the one to say yes or no. It's because of your skewed vision and opinions that the codes have to dictate what gets built into a new home because we all know you'll cry and whine about it and not explain it properly. Grow up.......
