The Automatic Fire Alarm Association has various individual membership levels. Each level has the same member benefits but the annual pricing may vary. We also offer a 3-year membership at a discounted rate from our standard 1-year individual membership. If you are looking for more than one membership, check out our corporate sponsorship levels that include other options:

Club 72 Corporate Sponsorship

Membership begins the day you pay and expires one-year from that date. 90 days prior to your expiration date, you will receive an automated renewal notice to begin the renewal process. We have plenty of resources available to help you with that, so please don't hesitate to check out the membership FAQ page.
