Fire Facts is an educational seminar series offering practical NFPA code insights for fire protection professionals.
About this Event

Encore Fire Protection is excited to present Fire Facts – Connecticut 2026, a comprehensive educational seminar focused on NFPA 72: National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code and its practical application in today’s fire protection environment. This one-day event brings together industry professionals — including installers, inspectors, designers, AHJs, and facility managers — for an in-depth look at key changes, common compliance challenges, and real-world solutions.

Attendees will gain clarity on the latest revisions to NFPA 72, learn how to interpret complex code requirements, and explore best practices for implementation in the field. With a focus on helping professionals elevate their understanding and confidence, Fire Facts is built around the issues you deal with every day — from system testing and documentation to performance criteria and inspection protocols.

We’re proud to feature Matt Meyers and Rich Sigethy as our lead speakers. Both bring years of hands-on experience and deep technical knowledge of fire alarm systems and code enforcement. Their insights will help bridge the gap between code language and practical application, giving attendees tools they can use immediately.

Whether you’re preparing for inspections, updating your procedures to align with the latest code cycle, or looking to deepen your technical foundation, Fire Facts – Connecticut 2026 offers valuable continuing education in a collaborative setting.
