Fire Chief Retrofits Home with Sprinklers
Chief Gary Warren, Chief of the Westlake and Oak Hill Fire
Departments, recently remodeled his home to include a fire sprinkler retrofit.
Knowing firsthand the importance of this life-saving feature, Chief Warren also
wanted to understand what it would take to install residential fire sprinklers
in an exisitng home. Having introduced a sprinkler ordinance to the Austin City
Council in 2001, Chief Warren has always been a strong advocate for home fire
sprinklers.
With this project, Chief Warren hopes to increase awareness
for current homeowners and individuals involved in new construction by
producing a video of the entire installation of the system and providing that to
anyone who is interested in sprinklers.
