Why Fire Protection Tanks

Most Fire Departments have officially declared that May 3, 2022, is the start of the 2022 High Fire Season. It wasn’t long ago that a notice like this would be a casual warning to be careful with your campfires and barbecues, now it is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TYPE WARNING as nobody was spared last year from the impact of wildfires on some level. The latest updates and information can be obtained from the SBCFD wildfire update website.

Fire protection or Fire Suppression tanks are now required for every business obtaining a new business license and mandatory for most others as the threat to life and property has become real and increasingly more dangerous year after year. Installing a Fire Protection tank to store the necessary water to keep a field moist, soak dry areas that would quickly burn, or ensure that firefighters have an adequate supply of water to extinguish buildings and homes is critical.
