FREE Wildfire Home Hardening Workshop for Homeowners

Attention Marin Homeowners! Join FIRESafe MARIN for a FREE 2-hour seminar on wildfire home-hardening.

• 5PM Live Burn Demo and Manufacturer Showcase
• 6PM-8PM Seminar for Homeowners

Recognizing that home-hardening through improved architectural design, ember and ignition resistant material selection, and retrofitting existing buildings are the most important factors in improving home survival during wildfires, FIRESafe MARIN has developed a seminar and training curriculum to introduce homeowners to these concepts.

Taught by experts in the field of wildfire, home hardening, and building science, this seminar will help Marin homeowners to:

• Identify their home’s vulnerabilities to wildfires and embers;
• Introduce ignition and ember resistant design and materials;
• Provide home-hardening and retrofitting resources;
• Encourage building modifications to reduce the likelihood of structural ignitions during wildfires;
• Manufacturer representatives will be on-site to display fire resistant building materials.

Weather permitting, a live fire demonstration will be conducted at 5PM to demonstrate the differences between fire resistant and ordinary construction.
