Reduction in your insurance bills might well make retrofit financially
viable. It certainly does in commercial premises where their use isn't
already mandated.

When one sprinkler goes off, do they all go at the same time? Am I going
to have all my possessions everywhere in the house soaked because
SWMBO's doing soss in the oven? (The kitchen smoke detector goes off
each time she does this.) Or if I accidentally biff one while carrying a
ladder? And how do you turn them off once its clear that the danger is
over?

JOOI I assume that they would be installed in a kitchen. It is probably
the obvious place. But the consequences of a water based sprinkler going
off over a chip pan fire (the most common kitchen fire?) could be worse
than not having one. We have all been trained to cover the fire rather
than throw water over it.
