About the National Fire Sprinkler Association
Established in 1905, the National Fire Sprinkler Association, Inc. is a trade association comprised primarily of contractors, suppliers and manufacturers of fire sprinklers and related equipment and services. Subscriber memberships are available to fire, building, insurance, and government officials. Architects and independent engineers may join as Professional members. Friend of the Industry memberships are open to those not traditionally considered as part of the industry such as homeowners association members, political appointees, insurance industry representatives, realtors and water industry members. Because of this broad-based membership, NFSA is able to act as the “Voice of the Fire Sprinkler Industry.”
Mission Statement
"To protect lives and property from fire through the widespread acceptance of the fire sprinkler concept."
Purpose
To provide a structured forum in which members:
- work together on local initiatives
- support national issues consistent with the goals and objectives of the NFSA
- promote the acceptance of competently installed and maintained fire sprinklers and other fire suppression systems in both new and existing construction
- uphold the highest standards of professionalism
