PROTECT YOUR HOME FROM WILDFIRES
The EPC Committee strongly suggests that Cottages located adjacent to interface areas, equip their homes with the W.A.S.P. wildfire sprinkler system.
Many homes lost to wildfire, burn from the roof down, started from these wind-blown embers. These spot fires often occur many miles from the fire itself, even if the fire is contained. It makes sense that one of the smartest ways to help protect your home is to keep the roof and surrounding area wet.
One of the advantages of the WASP Gutter Mount Sprinkler System is that it can be turned on, and left on, during an evacuation.
Deployed by an extendable pole, the light weight bracket easily and quickly attaches to the existing gutters on most homes. Installs in minutes…no ladder or tools required. Complete with high quality agricultural grade sprinkler heads rated up to a 33’ (10m) spray radius. The spray radius is dependent on water pressure. Actual results may vary. The head is a tenth the weight of standard brass sprinkler heads and is non-impact, conserving water and able to work with very low pressure. Incredibly durable and reliable. Water is supplied from your home’s existing hose taps.
