The Australian bush is brutal, fire can come from any direction and you need to be ready for it. EmberAttack is one part of a larger solution to protect your home in a program of maintenance and prevention creating a waterfall from your gutters.
When water pressure is poor or non-existent—the times you need protection most - EmberAttack's closed-loop system keeps working. Your pre-filled collection bin becomes a lifeline, with water continuously pumped to your ridge line sprayers, flowing down across your entire roof to extinguish embers, then returning via your full gutters back to the bin. This efficient recirculation means you won't run out of water at the worst possible moment. Meanwhile, your main drinking water tanks remain protected and isolated, safe from contamination by fire retardants or chemicals. It's the system that works when traditional protection fails.
Full Instructions coming soon.
