Pye-Barker Expands Connecticut Footprint with Hartford Sprinkler Buyout
Atlanta-based Pye-Barker Fire & Safety has acquired Hartford Sprinkler Co., Inc., a century-old Connecticut firm specializing in fire suppression and life safety systems. The move integrates comprehensive sprinkler maintenance into Pye-Barker’s existing security and alarm infrastructure, aiming to provide a consolidated service model for clients across the state.
