FIRE FOILtm

Before you evacuate...."wrap it and run"

DISCLAIMER:
Fire Foil offers this product as a means to reflect infrared heat gain from brush or forest fires near your home.  No warranties or guarantees are implied.  This product is sold as a last chance effort to save your home before you evacuate due to an approaching fire threat by significantly reducing heat transfer.

                                                       Simply staple fire foil to your walls
 

 
                                        Cover all flammable surfaces
 

APPLICATION
Wrap all combustible surfaces with Fire Foil.  Secure with wire, staples, screws or nails.   Pay close attention to all vertical surfaces as these are most prone to combustion when subjected to intense radiant heat.
On wooden walls use a hammer stapler or secure with non flammable strips and screws.  The highly reflective surface of Fire Foil bounces the infrared heat away from the surface and prevents spontaneous combustion.

Fire Foil can be effectively used to protect your cars, propane tanks, boats, motor homes, anything that can be damaged by an intense fire passing by.
 

               Make sure top and sides are completely covered
 

FACT vs. FICTION
It is a wide spread thought that homes burn down due to flying embers or sparks on the roof.  Fact is, most roofing materials have a fire rating that can withstand such exposure.  What then causes the fire?  Intense radiant heat generated by a traveling wall of fire striking a vertical flammable surface.   Within minutes the walls are on fire.

Notice the only thing not burning in this photo is the roof.
 

Typically, within minutes (depending on the absorbtivity of the surface), spontaneous combustion results and whatever is on the receiving end of the radiant heat quickly reaches its flash point and burns.   It is not uncommon to have curtains inside the home spontaneously combust from intense infrared heat coming through the window.  Dual pane windows cannot withstand the intense heat and most often break allowing flames, sparks, smoke and heat into your home.
Fire Foil effectively bounces radiant heat from flammable surfaces until such time the radiant heat subsides as the fire passes.   Fire Foil field testing on a wood surface show minimal heat gain even after intense radiant heat exposure while exposed wood bursts into flames.
 

SUMMARY
We are not fire experts.  We are however experts at understanding the movement, effects, sources and problems caused by radiant heat.  We have learned that there are only two ways to limit the effects of infrared heat:
1)  Absorb it and deal with the heat gain
2) Reflect it and change the direction
Changing the the direction of infrared heat at the surface of your home into one that is highly reflective is the best insurance against losing your home to fire.

   Fire foil is 50" wide

Cost: $85 per roll plus shipping.
