Firewise

The Firewise Program provides homeowners with simple steps to help reduce a home’s wildfire risk. The steps a homeowner can take are based in solid fire science research.

1. When it comes to wildfire risk, it is not a geographical location, but a set of conditions that determine the home’s ignition.
2. A home’s ignition risk is determined by its immediate surroundings or its “home ignition zone” and the home’s construction materials.
3. Homeowners can and must take primary responsibility for wildfire safety action around the home.
