Reduce your risk of Wildfire!
Fire Prevention Tips:
Define your defensible space.
Defensible space is a buffer zone, a minimum 30 foot non-combustible area around your house that reduces the intensity and risk of a wildfire from starting or spreading to your home. Formed by following the critical steps outlined below, defensible space depends on clearing flammable materials away from your home. Although a 30 foot distance is standard, additional clearance as great as 100 feet may be necessary as the slope of your lot increases.
Defensible space not only helps protect your home in the critical minutes it takes a fire to pass, it also gives firefighters an area in which to work. During a large-scale fire, when many homes are at risk, firefighters must focus on homes they can safely defend.
Remove or prune trees.
Be sure to prune low-hanging branches to keep a ground fire from climbing into upper branches. Limbing up these “ladder fuels” cuts the chances of ground fires climbing into tree canopies and becoming unpredictable flame-throwers.
Cut grass and weeds regularly.
Signs, addresses and access.
Reduce flammable vegetation, trees and brush around your home.
Relocate wood piles and leftover building materials.
Keep it clean. (your roof and yard, we mean!)
