Protect Your Investment from Wildfire
The Escalating Threat and Solution
Wildfire risk is rising across the West, and homeowners can no longer rely on a single line of defense. A well-designed external wildfire sprinkler system creates a protective moisture barrier around your home, reducing ignition potential during ember storms—the number one cause of structure loss in wildfires. When combined with home-hardening and defensible-space mitigation, a sprinkler system becomes a powerful added layer of protection that works even when you’re not home, giving fire crews more time and giving your property a fighting chance.
Defense Delivered’s AquaPulse360™ system was engineered specifically for mountain communities with limited water resources. Traditional systems can drain tens of thousands of gallons per hour; ours uses zoned controls and intelligent, cloud-based automation to achieve the same level of protection at a fraction of the water demand—just 32 GPM. Whether supplied by a small tank, well, or shared HOA water system, AquaPulse360™ optimizes flow, rotates zones, and prevents entire neighborhoods from activating at once. It’s smart, efficient wildfire defense built for the realities of the modern WUI.
Defense Delivered Aquaplus360™
Unlike off-the-shelf “all-at-once” sprinkler systems, AquaPulse360™ actively adapts to fire behavior. Using cloud-connected automation, thermal cues, and real-time zone control, the system targets only the areas that need protection—windward walls, rooflines, vulnerable vents, and decks—while maintaining a sustainable flow rate. This precision reduces waste, extends run time, and ensures your stored water is used where it matters most. The result is a smart defensive envelope that works seamlessly with your home’s existing mitigation efforts.
AquaPulse360™ is also designed for scalability beyond a single home. HOAs, Condo’s Commercial buildings, ranches, and shared mountain communities can link multiple systems together, allowing each property to operate independently while avoiding the catastrophic surge of having every system activate at once. This coordinated approach protects infrastructure, preserves water pressure, and provides communities with a unified, responsible wildfire-readiness strategy. With AquaPulse360™, you're not just protecting a home—you’re strengthening the resilience of an entire neighborhood
Your Home Can Survive a Wildfire — If You Prepare in Advance
Even if you have good insurance coverage, it’s limited to replacement value to rebuild your home.
If your home is valued at $2m, and your policy covers $1m, the equity balance has disappeared until you have rebuilt, a process that can easily take 2 years.
Your ROI is insuring or protecting that equity value and your irreplacable posessions.
Assess It
Certified Wildfire Mitigation Specialists
We start with a comprehensive wildfire risk assessment of your property. Our certified Wildfire Mitigation experts, in conjunction with a Summit Fire/EMS fire inspector, will provide a comprehensive assessment report for your property. Using Firewise USA® principles, USDA Forest Service guidance, and IBHS (Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety) recommendations, we identify vulnerabilities and create a step-by-step plan to harden your home.
✅ Defensible space recommendations
✅ Ember exposure risk analysis
✅ Custom wildfire mitigation plan
Following completion of the mitigation plan, the wildfire mitigation report (with before and after photos) can be submitted to insurance companies to qualify for fire insurance rate reductions and discounts under recently passed Colorado House Bill 25-1182.
Harden It
Protect the First 5 Feet
The area within 5 feet of your home is the most critical. We clear flammable vegetation, replace mulch with gravel or stone, and install fine mesh to block embers from entering vents, eaves, and gutters.
🔥 90% of homes that burn in wildfires ignite from windblown embers —
not direct flames.
We make your home fire resistant.
Protect It
Automated Wildfire Sprinkler System
After home hardening, our Real Intelligence-powered Automated Exterior Sprinkler system is your last line of defense. With data fusion from thermal cameras, satellite wildfire alerts, and temperature sensors, our system automatically activates as fire danger approaches your property using a graduated response to initially pre-wet exterior surfaces, then soak exterior surfaces, and finally deploy US Forest Service-approved Class A foam, if needed.
Defense Delivered has the most advanced Automated external wildfire sprinkler system on the market, at the lowest cost of any comparable systems available today:
Utilizing sprinkler Zone Rotation to manage water usage
Full Remote Control via cell phone App
Manual Override and Manual Triggering via phone App
Automatic Triggering via proprietary multi-sensor data fusion controller algorithm
Designed to reliably defend, even when you're away
Developed with input from two Colorado Fire Departments for maximum compatibility with their wildfire fire fighting protocols & practices
CBS News story on Defense Delivered – October 21, 2025
Wet Homes Don’t Burn!
Automated external sprinkler systems have been shown to protect and save between 96% and 100% of homes in active wildfires. A 2001 FEMA grant paid for 188 homes in Minnesota to have automated external sprinkler systems installed for wildfire protection purposes. During the 2007 Ham Lake wildfire, 100% of the homes with external sprinkler systems survived, while more than 100 neighboring homes without external sprinkler systems were completely destroyed.

Insurance Coverage and Discounts
Colorado insurance companies have recently begun denying coverage to homes in the Wildland-Urban Interface zone – or dramatically increasing the rates for fire insurance coverage. Colorado House Bill 25-1182 was passed by the Colorado Legislature in May 2025 to address this exact topic. Beginning in July 2026 Colorado insurers will have to consider all wildfire mitigation efforts in their rate and coverage decisions and provide discounts for property-specific and community wildfire mitigation efforts.
Your Summit Fire/EMS wildfire assessment report, documenting your remediation efforts to address the issues identified (including before-and-after photographs of the remediation work) can be submitted to your insurance company to receive insurance rate reductions and discounts per HB 25-1182. This is where our Wildfire Mitigation efforts will be able to pay for themselves over a period of years, through reduced fire insurance coverage rates and insurance premium discounts.
