Protect Your Home with a Wildfire Defense System
If your home is located in a wildfire-prone area, installing a fully automated ember-protection and exterior fire defense system is one of the most powerful steps you can take to safeguard your property. Our systems are designed to provide a crucial layer of protection, giving you greater peace of mind when wildfire season arrives.
Not All Wildfire Protection Systems Are Created Equal
There is a wide range of quality and effectiveness when it comes to wildfire protection.
Spray and Pray Method
Some systems use basic lawn-sprinkler components and chemical additives that offer little more than false reassurance.
Our Engineered Solutions
Ours are engineered from the ground up as comprehensive, hydraulically calculated defense systems designed to meet rigorous international wildfire standards.
Choosing a properly engineered system is the difference between minimal protection and maximum resilience, reliability, and performance when it matters most.
Our Partnership with Platypus Wildfire Systems
No wildfire system can guarantee 100% protection, nor should any system ever be used as a shelter-in-place solution. But if your goal is to give your home the best possible chance against a wildfire, system design and engineering matter.
That’s why we’ve partnered with Platypus Wildfire Systems, the industry leader in wildfire protection technology. Australia — a country with decades of experience confronting intense wildfire seasons — is currently the only place with established codes and design standards for these systems. Those standards are expected to be adopted in the U.S. soon.
Design standards set clear performance requirements for how systems must operate under extreme fire conditions. They are based on proven engineering principles and require components built specifically for wildfire applications — not repurposed from residential irrigation. Platypus systems are engineered to meet these standards, providing a level of reliability, efficiency, and defense that generic systems simply cannot match.
When comparing systems, ask whether the sprinkler heads and components were designed specifically for wildfire protection — or adapted from lawn irrigation products.
OUR SERVICES
Pre-Construction and Design Consultation
Your home’s exterior is part of its architectural statement — and fire protection should complement that design, not disrupt it. Our team works closely with architects and builders from the earliest stages of a project to ensure wildfire systems integrate seamlessly into the home’s aesthetic.
We also provide full-service guidance on local permitting and jurisdictional requirements, and deliver all necessary design documentation for integration into civil and mechanical engineering plans.
Our design services include:
Sizing of pipework, pumps, tanks, and related equipment
Complete system design documentation
Installation and commissioning plans
A recommended maintenance program to ensure peak system performance and long-term reliability.
Wildfire Protection System Installation
Our installation team brings decades of experience to every project, delivering precision workmanship, system reliability, and seamless coordination with general contractors and project schedules.
A wildfire protection system can be fully integrated during new construction or major remodels — allowing piping to be concealed within walls, attics, or sub-floor spaces for a clean, unobtrusive finish.
For existing homes, we offer expert retrofit installations that prioritize aesthetics. Every detail — from pipe routing to sprinkler placement — is carefully planned to preserve your property’s appearance while significantly enhancing its safety.
Service and Annual Maintenance
Annual inspection and maintenance are essential to ensure your system operates flawlessly when wildfire risk is highest. During these visits, our technicians verify the performance of every component — including controllers, pumps, and sprinkler heads — identify any signs of wear, and make proactive adjustments or repairs. Routine service ensures your investment remains reliable and ready to protect your home year after year.
TYPES OF PROJECTS
We provide customized wildfire protection solutions for a wide range of applications, including:
New residential construction
Full residential remodels
Retrofit installations for existing homes
Commercial and public asset protection projects
Design Standards and Engineering
All systems are designed and certified by Platypus Wildfire Systems engineers, ensuring full compliance with Australian wildfire design standards — the most advanced in the world. Locally, Kûbed collaborates with Platypus engineers to account for site-specific conditions, building materials, and property features, delivering a system that is both highly effective and visually harmonious.
