There's a new game changer on the market for home wildfire protection using your swimming pool water. It's a powerful water cannon wildfire sprinkler that sits on a heavy duty tripod. The water cannon is supplied from an 1.5" fire hose from a gas powered fire pump that draws water from a swimming pool, lake, water tank, or other water source.
It's revolutionary because it makes it so that the homeowner no longer needs to worry about staying back to fight the wildfire. The water cannon wildfire sprinkler is activated by an easy flip of the handle on a multi hose diverter valve. It shoots anywhere in the 75 - 100 feet range depending on the pressure of your gas powered pool fire pump. It works after you evacuate and will keep defending your home until it either runs out of gas or your swimming pool runs out of water. Keeping your roof or property wet even after you evacuate is the secret recipe to preventing embers from igniting which gives you a much better chance at saving your home. Most homeowners with a swimming pool in Southern California with big properties are putting more than 1 of these in strategic locations on their property so they can defend different areas of their property.
Please be aware, there's a lot of home wildfire defense service companies out in California that will come to your house in a truck and try to sell you big expensive gas fire pumps and water cannons like this for a total price of 50-75k. Do not fall for this! Those expensive fire pumps that they'll try to sell you are way too unnecessarily powerful and will drain your pool in 10 minutes.
The proper Horsepower class of a Portable Gas Powered Pool Fire Pump is in the 5-7 HP Range. This is all you need to use your swimming pool to defend your home. You can get a high performance, dual stage fire pump, water cannon with a couple 100 foot lengths of fire hose for around 5k shipped right to your door for free (which is a fraction of what those companies will charge to come to your house).
