RE: Clear Plastic shields to prevent button presses ...

As long as you have an existing system in place,
it's "grandfathered".

Good luck trying to replenish your Halon if it 
"drops"...it's likely going to cost a whole
*lot* of money to convert the system.

Last time ours "dropped", prior to the change
in EPA rules, it cost over $35,000 to refill it :(
