 | Products: hydrants, tanks,
sprinklers, portable systems |
 | Services: Forest thinning
and fuel removal |
 | Design & Planning for
at-risk communities
|

Our Simple Method:
1. Clear out fuel: trim & thin trees, remove brush and other combustibles. As
a licensed contractor we are interested on bidding large clearing & thinning
jobs of 25 acres or more throughout the U.S.
2. Create fire break in open land and defensible space around structures.
Make sure access for emergency crews is unobstructed.
3. Set up good water supply. Provide whatever fire fighting equipment is
needed: tanks, hose, sprinklers, Thermo-Gel, pumps, hydrants.
4. Provide owner / property manager with maintenance and operations manuals.
Proper maintenance is key to decreasing risk.
These four steps can be enacted in forest settings, grasslands, deserts and
suburbs. Following this simple method will significantly decrease the risk of
loss due to wildfire. Due to the extremes involved with wildfire there is no
guarantee fire damage will not still occur.
