WOODBURY, N.J. - May 22, 2013 - PRLog -- Jay Cipriani, owner of Cipriani Remodeling Solutions was featured in a March 4, 2013 NJ.com article titled “NJ home fire suppression bill decried by South Jersey builders, lauded by fire officials.”

The article was written about how bill A1570 “New Home Fire Safety Act” will have a negative impact on builders and remodelers if it is approved by the NJ Senate.  The bill received 44-30 approval in the Assembly in January 2013 and but has not been scheduled yet for Senate review.

Approval of this bill will force builders and remodelers will to increase their costs to install fire sprinkler systems in new construction projects.  In addition to the higher costs, there is a concern about the effectiveness of the sprinklers in new construction.  “The way homes are built today, they’re pretty safe,”  Jay Cipriani said, citing modern standards for electrical supply, fire stops and others features.

A former firefighter, Cipriani backs the efforts of the state to try to safely improve homes However, he feels that sprinkler systems would be beneficial in older homes.  “I can certainly see installing suppression systems in older homes with older heating systems and wiring. We’ve actually installed suppression systems in additions over the years.”
