Fire Sprinkler Contractors

Specialized insurance programs dedicated to fire sprinkler contractors who design, fabricate, install, test, service, and repair fixed water-type and special hazard suppression systems.

The U.S. fire sprinkler market reached a value of $4.7B in 2020.


Setting up fire sprinkler systems can be a long, arduous process.  Fire sprinkler contractors face unique risks and protecting their interests can be challenging.
 

With technological advancements and product innovations, the market for fire sprinklers has increasingly gained traction.  The growing rate of construction of commercial units including offices, retail shops, commercial centers, entertainment centers, hospitals and schools is catalyzing the demand for fire sprinklers in the U.S. 

Amwins Program Underwriters’ two Fire Sprinkler Contractors programs (SprinklerPro and Fire Sprinkler Select) have serviced the insurance needs of the fire sprinkler industry for more than a decade.  We value expertise and relationships equally - creating partnerships that deliver and last.  Because your challenges are our privilege.  And when you win, we all win.

The appetite for both programs includes fire sprinkler contractors that design, fabricate, install, test, service and repair sprinkler suppression systems including pre-action or deluge water systems, and systems utilizing halon, inergen, FM 200, foam, or CO2.
