Overview — From Amwins Underwriting
SprinklerPro is an MGA-backed program underwritten by Amwins Underwriting for agents placing fire sprinkler and special hazard suppression contractors. It is structured to combine general liability, professional liability, pollution, and excess capacity under a coordinated program form so you can place multi-line accounts with consolidated underwriting and terms.
Ideal Accounts and Appetite
- Small to mid-sized contractors that design, install, inspect, test, maintain, or repair water-based sprinkler systems (including pre-action/deluge).
- Contractors working on special hazard suppression systems (e.g., halon, Inergen, FM-200, foam, CO2) where both installation and design exposures are present.
- Accounts seeking integrated coverage for installation risks, design errors, and pollution/microbial exposures tied to sprinkler work.
What Typically Fits / What Doesn’t
- Fits: contractors with disciplined safety programs, documented quality controls, and experienced supervision on complex or special hazard installs.
- May not fit: contractors with frequent significant losses, ongoing litigation arising from design defects, or operations primarily involving large-scale industrial manufacturing outside typical sprinkler/suppression work.
Coverage Highlights and Advantages
- Multi-line program that addresses both installation and professional exposures in a single submission.
- Contractors Pollution Liability that expressly includes microbial substances (mold/fungus) — important for water-related claims.
- Follow-form umbrella/excess capacity that can extend over primary, pollution, microbial, and professional liability where appropriate.
