If there is some law that requires fire sprinklers in apartments, then I want to be able to convince my landlord to install them.

Get hold of your local building inspector's office for the city/town that you live in. They will be able to direct you to the right place or else answer your question. But just FYI, I doubt if you could convince your landlord to install them (unless you help foot the cost). If the apartments are currently occupied, then a "Certificate of Occupancy" has already been issued and they have passed the current fire/building codes. But I do agree that they are a good idea.

Sprinkler/fire systems are only required on new construction. Your building was probably built before the law was enacted. There is no law to require installation now.
