Fire Sprinklers Increase Home Value

Wednesday, January 11, 2006

fire sprinklerNonprofit group Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition (HFSC) released the findings of a new Harris Interactive poll that said 69% of homeowners believe that having a fire sprinkler system increases the value of a home.

45% of respondents said that a sprinklered home is more desirable than an unsprinklered home, most often because of the added safety provided by the sprinklers (51%).

38% percent said they would be more likely to purchase a new home with sprinklers than one without.

HFSC commissioned the December 2005 survey of 1,019 U.S. adults (620 of whom own a house) in order to measure awareness of residential fire sprinkler systems and gauge feelings toward builders who install fire sprinklers as a standard feature of a new home.
