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.
To install EmberAttack cut a 100mm section into your down pipe to install EmberAttack with the Watergate valve at a manageable height approximately 1200mm off the ground.
Please note please positioning the connectors above the Watergate Valve
Once EmberAttack is installed into the downpipes make sure all joins are water proof using suitable pipe adhesives and silicone adhesives.
To create the Waterfall effect which back fills your gutters:-
Ember Attack is Australian Designed and Made in Australia.
Yes EmberAttack is able to be used to protect my water tanks from soap and cleaning chemicals or just dirty dusty roof water. Major benefit for rural properties is the ability to clean you roof after a dust storm.
Yes the EmberAttack spray system can be configured to spray and run under your solar panels from the ridge cap sprays and then using sprinkler risers spray on top of the panels giving complete coverage.
Yes they do drop water onto your roof and much more. Many fire fighting planes and helicopters during a fire get water from where ever they can. This can include dams, sea water, pools and to improve its effectiveness they add fire retardants to improve the effectiveness of the water. This will damage your tank water supply making it unsafe for you use and having to leave your home until it can be fixed. EmberAttack protects you water supply allowing you to still live in the home after the fire.
We live next to the bush in Sydney’s Northern Beaches and our warehouse and dispatch is from Belrose.
The Waterfall system is more suitable where you have a permanent water supply like a big town or city that backs onto the bush and you can connect a garden hose and there is plenty of water.
It's not the fire that destroys most homes. It's the invisible ember attack that rains down kilometres ahead of the blaze. Up to 90% of homes lost in bushfires are destroyed by ember attack - not direct flames.
