Take Wildfire Defense Into Your Own Hands
When wildfires outpace emergency response, homeowners need the ability to act. A self-deployable defense protects during the most critical hours.
Introducing Engine1
Engine1 is a prototype and the first mobile, self-deployable wildfire protection system, powered by your pool to protect homes when minutes matter most. We’re launching on Kickstarter in March 2026. Join early access to help shape the design and bring a new line of fire defense to communities.

A Growing Wildfire Crisis
Homes don't burn only from walls of flame. They ignite from wind-driven embers. Fire seasons are intensifying. Insurance premiums are rising. Coverage is disappearing. Relying solely on fire departments is no longer enough.
Ember storms cause most of home ignitions
Fire crews routinely overwhelmed
Insurance disappearing in high-risk zones
Homeowners need self-reliant protection
You can't control the wildfire, but you can protect your home.

Proven Fire Science
Wet Homes Don't Burn. Most homes ignite from airborne embers, not direct flames. Engine1 disrupts this ignition pathway by keeping surfaces wet and resistant during ember storms.
Why It Works
  • Water curtains reduce ember ignition
  • Wet surfaces resist smoldering
  • Wide coverage cools surrounding areas
  • Designed with fire professional input
