Fire Protection
The work of UA members saves lives every day, from providing clean water and sanitation to fire protection. Fire sprinkler systems not only save lives but often extinguish fires before they spread, saving property as well. UA members install and maintain all types of fire suppression systems on commercial, residential and industrial sites.
