DFS, #WestSpringfieldMA FD, the National Association of State Fire Marshals, and NFPA will host a live fire demonstration at The Big E fair on Friday to showcase the lifesaving power of home fire sprinklers. Sprinklers protect people, pets, and property. See them in action on 9/25 at noon!
A large fire erupts inside a model room labeled "Without Fire Sprinklers," while another labeled "With Fire Sprinklers" remains unaffected. The event, featuring State Fire Marshal Jon Davine and West Springfield Fire Chief CJ Bartone, is scheduled for September 25, 2026, at 12:00 pm near the Massachusetts Building during the Big E. Logos for West Springfield Fire, the State Fire Marshal, and the Big E appear, with text emphasizing the importance of fire sprinklers.
