Frequently Asked Questions

What is the California Wildfire Sprinkler System?

Our wildfire sprinkler system creates a defensive water barrier to protect your home from flying embers, radiant heat, and flames. Built with industrial-grade materials and designed for reliability, it works mechanically without electricity. When combined with mastication and defensible space services, it forms a complete wildfire defense solution.

How does the system operate during power outages?

The system functions without electricity, so it keeps running even during wildfire-related outages.

What areas of my property will the sprinklers cover?

Each system is custom-designed to your home:

  • Full roof and eave coverage

  • 30 feet beyond your home for perimeter protection

  • 100% overlap to resist high winds

Bundling with mastication and defensible space extends protection beyond your roofline.

What water sources can be used?

Our systems can pull from:

  • Municipal water

  • Wells

  • Storage tanks

  • Pools

  • Natural sources such as ponds, rivers, canals, or lakes

How long does installation take?

Most installations are complete in just a few days. Projects including defensible space clearing or mastication may take longer, but we coordinate all services for fast protection.

Will this help with home insurance?

Many insurers recognize wildfire sprinklers and defensible space as risk-reduction measures. These may help you qualify for coverage or lower premiums—check with your broker for details.

How long will the system run?

It operates continuously until manually shut off, providing full protection throughout the wildfire event.

Will the sprinklers affect the appearance of my home?

No. We design systems with low-profile sprinkler heads that blend into your home’s architecture.

What materials are used?

We use only fire-resistant, corrosion-resistant, industrial-grade materials for maximum durability.

Is there a warranty?

Yes. Every California Wildfire Sprinkler System comes with a 1-year warranty covering materials and performance.

How does weather affect the system?

Our system withstands extreme heat, high winds, and freezing temperatures. Because the pipes remain dry when not in use, winterization is not required.

How cost-effective is the system?

Compared to the cost of fire damage, our systems are a smart investment. Bundling sprinklers, mastication, and defensible space services provides additional savings.

What is mastication and defensible space?

  • Mastication grinds brush and trees into mulch, reducing wildfire fuel.

  • Defensible space creates cleared safety zones around your home.
    Together with sprinklers, they create a layered defense that reduces fire intensity before it reaches your property.
