    Has this been tested? While I can understand how it works, I can't see it being useful against much.

    • The CFA does recommend sprinkler systems. It has to be installed correctly of course.

      Page 26:

      THE OBJECTIVE OF A BUSHFIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEM IS TO HELP EXTINGUISH EMBERS THAT LAND ON THE ROOF OR OTHER PARTS OF THE BUILDING.

  • My thoughts exactly. And if you think visiting their website will enlighten you further then you have embers in your brain.

  • Have a look at their installation guide. https://harrisonbushfireprotection.com.au/pages/installation…

    I would have thought by the phrase "set and forget" it would be permanatly installed. After looking at the install guide that is not the case. Would be handy if you had a number of them all connected to multiple hoses. Plus being a temp solution you could move around the house if required.

    Edit: guide advises "Tip: Ensure that your tap is fully turned on to ensure the best coverage and only use 1 sprinkler per tap. We recommend installing additional taps around your house in preparation for a bushfire event.".

  • Do these comply with Australian Standard AS 5414 - Bushfire water spray systems?

    Also note that you cannot simply rely on a bushfire sprinkler system to keep you safe in bushfire events - don't let it lull you into a false sense of security..

    "…spray systems intended to provide a degree of building protection against bushfire exposure, including ember attack, together with limited protection against radiant heat exposure [up to 19 kW/m2(BAL 19)]. Bushfire water spray systems are intended to complement the requirements of AS 3959, and should be considered as one component of a holistic fire management plan."

    'A report prepared by the former Howard government economic adviser Peter Crone for the National Bushfire Recovery Agency shows 48.1% of the Blue Mountains local government area was directly fire-affected, compared with 47.9% of the Snowy Valleys.

    When the NSW and federal governments announced $177m in joint funding for 71 bushfire recovery projects in November, 12 of these grants were for the Snowy Valleys, worth a total of $32.9m. None of the grants in that funding round were for the Blue Mountains, whose mayor is a Labor councillor.'

    there are no australian standards anymore…

    • Yes :).

      Throw all the Liberals in fire.

  • What happens if your hose has melted?

    • If the fire is already at your house, a sprinkler isn't going to do anything. It's meant to extinguish embers that fall on your roof so they don't set things alight, not put out raging fires. :)
