Fire Sprinkler Burn Demonstration Trailer Events
Since 2005, we've performed our trailer demonstrations for schools, community events and fire fighter departments from all over the New Jersey tri-state area.   Our Board has conducted community education presentations of our trailer for very young school children, general audiences, contractor professionals and fire fighters and officials - and tailors the presentation depending on each audience.   Our total presentation lasts anywhere from 10-20 minutes - including burn demonstration and introduction - and is suitable for audiences of all ages and backgrounds.

Many state and local fire officials joined us that day, as well as safety officials and members of the press.

Held on September 30, the year 2006 marked the 17th annual Public Safety Expo held in Bergen County, and our organization was honored to coordinate our first ever side-by-side burn demonstration during this landmark event.   In front of a crowd of 100 people - and with news video cameras rolling - we set two identical, fully furnished rooms ablaze to demonstrate the contrast of a residential fire with fire sprinklers and without fire sprinklers.
