During a bushfire, 95% of homes lost are due to Ember Attack!
BUSHFIRE ATTACK LEVEL - 29 TO FLAME ZONE
Radiant Heat Exposure - 29 to 40 kW per m2 with flame contact
BAL-29 - This is a high risk rating which means the risk of ember attack is increased and the radiant heat flux exposure may be up to 29kW per square metre. There are more extensive building requirements than lower ratings.
BAL-40 - This is a very high risk rating which means that the risk of ember attack is much greater with some likelihood of direct exposure to flames and radiant heat flux exposure up to 40kW per square metre.
Flame Zone - This is an extremely high risk rating indicating great risk of ember attack and extreme radiant heat exposure plus direct exposure to flames. The radiant heat flux exposure risk is the same as BAL 40.
Uninterrupted Water Supply
Having a stand alone water supply is a crucial consideration for your home bushfire ember defence. Towns water will fail or drop in pressure and cannot be relied upon during a bushfire.
A Fire Fighting Pump and a Static Water Supply (SWS), is the best option as it produces high pressure and flow which is required for a fire hose.
We recommend utilising all outlets on the pump by adding control valves, this way the water can be diverted to the inner, outer and fire hose as needed.
