London Fire Brigade Announces Sprinkler Campaign

The London Fire & Emergency Planning Authority, an elected body, has approved a sprinkler policy document for London Fire Brigade. It commits London Fire Brigade to promote sprinklers in "those properties where the most significant impact can be achieved, these are schools, residential care homes, domestic premises housing the most vulnerable and commercial premises that present a significant risk due to their size, construction or use."

While most of the focus is on new buildings the policy also applies to buildings undergoing major refurbishments.

The head of LFEPA, Councillor Brian Coleman, and the London Fire Brigade Commissioner, Ron Dobson both recently stated their support for sprinklers at a public hearing. While London Fire Brigade has supported sprinklers for many years, this document officially commits it to active promotion of sprinklers.
