Our rat~ng schedule is very much aligned ~n favor of automatic sprinkler systems when a property or fire insurance rating d~vision as defined by our ratirig schedule is fully sprinklered with an adequate water supply. In those cases, the rate credits are normally very substantial. This is almost always the case whenever commercial and manufacturing occupancies are concerned. However, there are a small number of exceptions. We are willing to promulgate tentative rates on nonsprinklered properties in your community contemplating the installation of automatic sprinkler systems. These applications may be instituted by anyone of our affiliated companies, insurance agents and insurance brokers or by the property owner. It usually works best if the insurance company, agent, or broker is the one generating the request as they are usually able to discuss and explain our rates to their cl~ent. The informat~on outl~ned in th~s letter is for the purpose of developing a f~re insurance rate. It is not for the purpose of making property loss prevention or l~fe safety recommendat~ons, and none are made.
