Abstract

This report evaluates the economics of domestic sprinkler systems in New Zealand. It includes a literature search, review and comparison of sprinkler codes around the world, costs and benefits of a domestic sprinkler system, and case studies for two single dwellings in Christchurch, followed by three cost-benefit scenarios. The study concludes that domestic sprinkler systems have tremendous potential for saving life and property.
