Question 1

What is the material made of, and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

(Oxidized Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) Fibers) The carbon fiber felt does not burn, melt, self-extinguishes, and chars without shrinking. Material can withstand temperatures of 2200 degrees Fahrenheit.

Question 2

How long does it take to cover a house?

Accepted Answer

60 – 90 minutes with 2-3 people (1500 square foot house). Fire blankets are manually installed like a fumigation tent.

Question 3

Is your product guaranteed to save my home?

Accepted Answer

Due to the extreme conditions and unpredictability associated with all wildfires it is impossible to make guarantees. The carbon fiber felt is inherently flame resistant, making it an effective heat blocker and fire barrier. The fire blankets combined with Phos-Chek fire retardant gives homeowners a fighting chance to save their homes and livelihoods.

Question 4

How do you store it?

Accepted Answer

Store inside garage or shed to avoid sunlight exposure and weather elements.

Question 5

Are the fire blankets reusable?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the fire blankets are reusable. Depending on the severity and exposure to direct flames some sections could become unusable and need replacing.

Question 6

Can I get a rebate from my insurance company for having the whole house fire blanket system

Accepted Answer

We are working with insurance companies to give homeowners a rebate for having the whole house fire blanket system and Phos-Chek application. Homeowners can check with their individual insurance companies for fire prevention discounts.

Question 7

Will the fire blankets damage my home while installing?

Accepted Answer

NO. Clips and sandbags secure the fire blankets on rooftop and ground level leaving no damage to your home

Question 8

Does the Phos-Chek fire retardant harm my plants and trees?

Accepted Answer

NO, the fire retardant is completely safe to apply on vegetation. Phos-Chek is people, pet and environmentally friendly.

Question 9

How do the fire blankets compare to Gels/Foams?

Accepted Answer

Gels/Foams work well but can be hard to apply during high winds and need to be reapplied after just a few hours. The whole house fire blanket system can be installed one time and left up for days or weeks.

Question 10

Is there training provided on how to install if I purchase?
