Fully Automated, Zero Touch
Wildfire sprinkler system protecting homes with automatic roof and perimeter coverage
FireShield activates automatically when wildfire conditions are detected near your home. The system saturates your roof and surrounding areas with water to reduce ignition risk from embers and radiant heat.
FireShield is a 24/7 automatic wildfire defense system for homes across the United States. It covers your home and land with water and eco-friendly foam to help keep them from catching fire, and you control it from an easy-to-use app.
What sets the FireShield system apart
Available nationwide: FireShield designs, builds and supports every system for homes in all 50 states.
- Fully automated, zero touch
- Your technician sets it at installation. From then on it decides and starts on its own; the app is there if you want it, never required.
- 36 zones per controller
- Where typical systems in this category stop at 6 to 8 zones, one FireShield controller runs up to 36.
- No size limit
- Large properties add controllers, one per structure if needed, and they work together in a single app.
- One engineer, one custom design
- A dedicated engineer designs each property zone by zone around its architecture, from multi-level rooflines to canyon lots, and the parts are made to match it.
- Hidden or barely visible
- Concealed inside walls and roof on new builds; on existing homes, routed through attics and eaves and kept along ridgelines.
- Triple connectivity
- Wi-Fi, cellular and satellite, plus battery backup, so it keeps working through outages and evacuations.

Technology
The FireShield controller
Built for the conditions a wildfire brings: extreme heat, smoke, ash and lost power. The controller runs on solid-state electronics in a sealed, weather-rated enclosure, stays connected when local networks fail, and acts on the owner’s settings the moment a fire comes within range.
No moving parts
Solid-state electronics and purpose-built firmware. No fan to clog with ash, no operating system to crash or update.
Stays connected
Wi-Fi, cellular and satellite, with battery backup and optional solar. Losing the grid or the cell tower does not take it offline.
Protects the plumbing
Manifolds stay unpressurized in standby and are only pressurized when the system runs.
Local control, always
The override switch on the unit stops any activation, whether it was started by the owner, the app or automatically.

Subtle Design, Professional Installation
Discreet wildfire protection system designed to match your home exterior
FireShield components are carefully integrated into your home’s exterior to maintain a clean, refined appearance. Installed along rooflines and protected areas, the system is tailored to fit your architecture and can be finished to match existing surfaces—delivering strong protection without disrupting your home’s visual appeal.FireShield wildfire sprinklers are installed along roof ridges and covered areas to stay hidden while delivering full defense.
Estates and large properties
Built for any size property, from one home to a whole estate
FireShield is designed for each property, kept discreet, and fully automated and zero touch: no owner action is needed for it to protect the home.
A dedicated engineer for every property
Your FireShield engineer designs the system around your home and the way you use it, not around a kit.
Standardized platform, custom-made details
The controller and core hardware are proven and identical everywhere. Everything that touches your home, from layout to finishes matched to the exterior, is optimized and made for it.
36 zones per controller
Typical systems in this category run 6 to 8 zones. One FireShield controller runs up to 36, so a large home is covered zone by zone instead of all at once.
As many controllers as the property needs
Main house, guest houses, garages, barns and the land around them. Each structure gets its own controller, all working together in one app. There is no size limit.
Hidden on new construction
On a new build, the plumbing and wiring go inside the walls and roof during construction, coordinated with your architect and builder. When the house is finished, the system is out of sight.
Minimal impact on existing homes
On existing homes, our crews follow installation standards built for minimal visible impact: runs through attics and eaves, heads along ridgelines and covered areas, finishes matched to the house.
Battery Backup & Solar Support
Wildfire defense system that operates during power outages
FireShield operates independently of grid power. An integrated battery system keeps the unit running during outages, and an optional solar panel helps maintain charge—so protection remains active even when electricity is unavailable.
Built-in battery backup with optional solar charging keeps FireShield running—even during power outages.
Off-Grid Pool Package
Pool water at full pressure, with no grid, no generator and no inverter
Utilities now shut the power off on purpose during high wind and high fire risk, sometimes for days, and Malibu already runs on low water pressure. A regular pump wired to the house stops with the grid; a generator is costly to keep ready. The FireShield Off-Grid Pool Package runs from the FireShield Power Hub instead: it makes itself ready from your pool and feeds your FireShield sprinklers at full pressure for 6 to 16 hours, depending on your pool capacity.
The FireShield Sequencer runs every start, recovers on its own if the line loses water, tests the pump weekly and reports status to your FireShield system. Designed and manufactured by FireShield. Available exclusively from FireShield.
A pump that draws from your pool and runs from the FireShield Power Hub, with no generator, no inverter and no grid power, for 6 to 16 hours.
Customized For Your House
How the wildfire sprinkler system is customized and protects your home step by step
Each FireShield system is individually designed to match your property’s layout and risk profile. Sprinklers are strategically positioned along rooflines and key exterior areas to provide layered coverage, including built-in redundancy to perform reliably in windy conditions.
When wildfire activity reaches a critical range, FireShield activates early, spraying water and fire-blocking foam on the parts of the house most likely to catch fire. By increasing surface moisture and reducing ember ignition risk, the system helps create conditions that resist fire spread—even before flames are visible nearby.
FireShield is tailored to your property and activates early to soak your roof and land, creating a strong defense before fire arrives.

Resilient Communication
FireShield automatically transitions between Wi-Fi, cellular, and satellite networks, allowing you to activate protection remotely even if one connection is disrupted.
Custom-Engineered for Your Home
Tailored wildfire sprinkler system designed for your property layout and risk level
Every FireShield system is individually designed for your property — never one-size-fits-all. We analyze your home’s structure, elevation, and surrounding landscape to determine optimal sprinkler placement across critical exterior surfaces.
Roof-mounted units protect vulnerable upper areas, while discreet perimeter sprinklers reinforce walls, eaves, and adjacent defensible space. This coordinated design helps maintain consistent moisture across the structure and nearby surroundings, with positioning calibrated to perform reliably in high-wind wildfire conditions.
Plumbing Protection
Pressure-controlled wildfire system to protect pipes and ensure durability
FireShield’s valves open and close slowly, so water does not slam through the pipes. This protects your plumbing, especially on long pipe runs.
Smart software and reinforced hardware work together to maintain controlled water movement and long-term reliability.
Two kinds of pressure control keep water from slamming through the pipes, so your plumbing lasts longer.
Main Components
Key parts of the wildfire sprinkler system protecting your home
Roof Rotors
FireShield roof rotors deliver wide-area coverage across your roof, gutters, and nearby exterior surfaces. By distributing water evenly across upper structures, they help reduce ignition risk from embers and radiant heat.
Eaves Sprayers
Installed beneath overhangs, FireShield eave sprayers protect exterior walls and the ground area closest to your home. This focused coverage reinforces the areas most vulnerable during ember exposure.
Class A Foam
FireShield applies non-toxic, U.S. Forest Service–approved, biodegradable Class A foam that improves water absorption on exterior surfaces. The foam clings longer than water alone and rinses away cleanly after application.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do you install FireShield Wildfire Sprinkler System for my house?
The FireShield Wildfire Sprinkler System is custom-designed and professionally installed based on your home's unique layout. Our expert team assesses your rooflines, eaves, and surrounding property to ensure optimal sprinkler placement for maximum wildfire defense. Installation is discreet and tailored to blend seamlessly with your home’s exterior.
Can FireShield protect a large estate or several buildings?
Yes, with no size limit. One FireShield controller runs up to 36 zones, where typical systems in this category run 6 to 8, and a property can have as many controllers as it needs: the main house, guest houses, garages, barns and the land around them, all working together in one app. On new construction the plumbing and wiring are hidden inside the walls and roof during the build, coordinated with your architect and builder. On existing homes our crews follow installation standards built for minimal visible impact.
Do I have to do anything for FireShield to work?
No. FireShield is fully automated and zero touch. Your technician sets the activation distance and countdown for your property at installation, and from then on the system watches the fire data around the clock and starts on its own, even when nobody is home. The app controls are there if you want them, never required.
Can I disable automatic activation when fire is nearby?
Yes. Although FireShield is designed to activate automatically when a fire threat is detected nearby, you have the option to disable or override the automatic activation through the FireShield mobile app, giving you full control over system operations.
Can I manually activate the system, on demand?
Absolutely. FireShield allows manual activation at any time through the FireShield app, ensuring you can start protecting your home whenever you feel it’s necessary, whether or not an automatic trigger has been detected.
When should I activate my system?
You should activate your FireShield system when there is a known wildfire threat approaching your area. However, the system is designed to automatically engage when fire activity is detected within a critical range, adding an extra layer of proactive protection even if you are away.
Will FireShield save my house during a wildfire?
No system can guarantee protection. FireShield is designed to soak your structure and nearby surroundings to help reduce ignition from embers and radiant heat — the leading causes of home loss during wildfires. Results depend on conditions, water supply and maintenance.
What else should I do to protect my home from wildfires besides using FireShield?
Along with installing the FireShield System, we recommend maintaining defensible space around your home by clearing dry vegetation, using fire-resistant landscaping, sealing vents, hardening structures with fire-resistant materials, and staying informed on wildfire conditions through trusted sources.
Will FireShield System help with my home insurance?
Coverage, renewals, discounts and credits are decided by your insurer, and installing FireShield does not guarantee any of them. What FireShield provides is documentation of your mitigation — installation, maintenance and readiness records — that you can share with your insurer or broker.
What are the water sources that the FireShield system uses?
The FireShield System can draw water from various sources, including municipal water supplies, swimming pools, dedicated water tanks, or onsite wells. During installation, we evaluate the best available source to ensure reliable water access during emergencies.
What are the power sources that the FireShield system uses?
FireShield Systems are equipped with multiple power options, including connection to your home’s electricity, backup battery systems, and optional solar integration. This multi-layered approach ensures that the system remains operational even during grid outages.
Once it starts, how long will FireShield keep running?
For as long as the water lasts. At 20 GPM a 20,000-gallon pool runs about 16 hours 40 minutes, and the controller, valves and communications keep going on battery backup; with the FireShield Off-Grid Pool Package the pump keeps going too, with no grid and no generator. See the runtime for your water source on the System specs page.
Is the Class A firefighting foam safe and how does it help?
Yes, the Class A firefighting foam used by FireShield is biodegradable, non-toxic, and environmentally safe. It enhances the water’s ability to penetrate and saturate combustible materials, dramatically improving the effectiveness of wildfire defense efforts.
What are the areas that FireShield System will saturate with water?
The system saturates key ignition zones, including your roof, eaves, exterior walls, and the surrounding landscape around your home, with rotors throwing 49 to 65 feet. This comprehensive coverage helps create a moisture barrier that significantly reduces fire risk.
How does wind affect the FireShield System?
While strong winds can influence spray patterns, the FireShield System is strategically designed with sprinkler placement and pressure optimization to maintain effective water coverage even during high-wind conditions commonly associated with wildfires.
