ABOUT THE FRONTLINE SYSTEM
Frontline Defense System 2 is software-connected, activates automatically when fire is near, and pre-wets a property so it is too wet for ember ignition
-Frontline’s software platform monitors fire and auto-activates the system when needed.
The homeowner monitors and controls the system through the Frontline Wildfire App, even if they have evacuated.
-Satellite connectivity and a backup battery keep the homeowner connected to the system during extended power outages.
-The system applies the same fire-preventing foam used by firefighters, without needing a firefighter onsite to apply it.
-Backup water supply options such as a pool, tank, well, or pond eliminate dependence on municipal water.
Defense System 2: Automated. Connected. Precise.
The Frontline Wildfire Defense System brings together purpose-built hardware and powerful software in one complete package so you can confront wildfire season with confidence – all through a smart mobile app. Once active, the system saturates your property with water and biodegradable firefighting foam, creating an environment that is too wet to burn.
At the center of every Frontline system is the Frontline controller. This small box provides powerful connectivity. It allows Frontline to monitor your system remotely and provide remote service and support. Most importantly, this device allows for complete remote operation of the Frontline system, so you can evacuate with the peace of mind that your home is being protected from wildfires.
Always connected for complete control
Every Frontline system comes with WiFi, cellular and satellite connectivity as well as a dedicated backup battery. If the power is shut off and cell service fails, you can still stay connected to your system with the Frontline Wildfire App and defend your home from anywhere.
Custom-designed for powerful ember defense
Every Frontline system installation starts with a custom design, based on your home’s unique needs with careful attention to sprinkler placements to ensure complete coverage of your home and 30 feet of property surrounding your home. Sprinkler coverage around your home includes 100% overlap to account for high wind during many wildfires.
How the Frontline wildfire sprinkler system works
The Frontline Wildfire Defense System is a preventative system that combats the threat of wind-borne embers. The system is designed to be turned on when fire is within seven miles of your home, well ahead of fire showing up at your doorstep. Embers can travel for miles and can threaten your home long before a wildfire is visible from your property. By running your Frontline system early, you allow your property to become fully hydrated and create an environment where embers are unable to cause a fire.
Eave sprayers
Defense System 2 eave sprayers are installed under the eaves of your home. They point downward and focus on keeping the walls of your home and the space up to fifteen feet from your home wet. This is the most critical zone for defending against embers and is commonly referred to as the immediate zone or HIZ-0.
Roof rotors
Defense System 2 roof rotors are mounted on the roof of your home. They rotate 360 degrees and focus on keeping your roof and gutters wet. They also spray up to 30 feet from the exterior wall of your home, the area known as the intermediate zone or HIZ-1.
Class A foam is 5x more effective than water alone
The Frontline System distributes a class A, fire-fighting foam that breaks down water surface tension and allows water to be absorbed more quickly and more deeply by combustible items on your home and property. Our foam is approved by the U.S. Forest Service and is used every day by firefighters. The foam is environmentally friendly, biodegradable, non-toxic, and easily washes away after being applied during a fire.
Intelligent water management
Designed to run and remain effective with low water pressure, Defense System 2 is constantly measuring and optimizing available water. Our system runs in a series of zones, much like landscaping irrigation systems, so that we can limit the water required at any given time. The use of Class-A foam further reduces the amount of water used. Typically our system will use your home’s primary water source first. If the system senses a drop in pressure it automatically switches to an available secondary water source such as a pool, tank, or well.
Frontline App
All the tools and information you need to be ready for wildfire season: Wildfire alerts, maps (including California, Colorado, New Mexico and more), fire danger indexes, emergency contact groups, and evacuation checklists. No more scouring the web to find critical information. Finally, comprehensive wildfire information is at your fingertips.
ABOUT EMBERS
Embers are the #1 threat
While raging fires and burning forests may provoke fear, the biggest threat to your home is actually much smaller. Wind-driven embers are the leading threat to homes and cause up to 90% of structure loss during a wildfire.
Did you know?
Flying embers cause up to 90% of homes destroyed by wildfire. When we think about wildfires, we generally envision huge walls of flames engulfing homes. The reality is that most homes don’t ignite from direct contact with flames. In fact, homes are typically destroyed indirectly by wind-born embers that are carried many miles ahead of the fire’s perimeter.
What can you do?
Preventing ember ignition saves homes. By creating an environment that is too wet to burn, the threat of ember ignition during a wildfire can be greatly reduced. Pre-wetting your property prevents embers from igniting your home when they land on your patio furniture, deck, roof, doormat, or any other combustible items on or around your home.
