If you’re in the 2018 IFC Section 901.4.5 states “Any device that has the 
physical appearance of life safety or fire protection equipment but that does 
not perform that life safety or fire protection function shall be prohibited.”

So besides telling my inspectors to start paying way more attention to funny 
looking sprinkler heads in changing rooms and locker rooms what can be done 
about this? Feels crazy that these can be marketed at all. Does AFSA, NFSA, or 
any of the major manufacturers have a communication pathway with like the 
consumer product safety commission or something like that?

Yeesh.
