Could It Happen Here?

Today’s wildfires burn hotter, spread faster, and are more destructive than anything we have seen before. With fires burning to our north and south, Marin Wildfire’s Executive Officer Mark Brown is often asked, “Could it happen here in Marin County?” This 7 minute video answers this question by looking at Marin's history of wildfires and the factors that determine a fire pathway, intensity and ...

    Why is this product still being sold in California? For that matter, why is it being sold anywhere by big box retailers? This foam burns like gasoline. A fireplace ember would likely set a self sustaining fire in the gutter that would spread to the roof.

    What's code/recommendation for the distance an above ground propane tank should be from a home or structure? My concern is heat from fire causing pressure to build and the pressure relief valve opening.

    • @FIRESafeMARIN
      @FIRESafeMARIN 2 месяца назад

      Hi there. The required distance will be subject to your local building codes. We typically recommend 30 ft minimum. And of course, maintain horizontal and vertical clearance of 10ft from any combustibles.

    • @Krautastic
      @Krautastic 2 месяца назад

      @@FIRESafeMARIN thanks! I'm in washington I believe code is 25ft, but I also feel like California is ahead of the curve on addressing these items, so I'd rather future proof rather than build to a code that will be superceded in a few years. Thanks for the input, your videos have been an incredible wealth of practical knowledge.

  • @Tom-wh9ip
    @Tom-wh9ip 4 месяца назад

    Thanks for the video and it is great to see that you have used a non-combustible panel to enclose the eave. My concern is that given you have installed 1/16" screen on the backside of the Hardie panels, painting the panels with a sprayer may have clogged those 1/16" holes. I've seen a number of instances of a painting crew essentially eliminating the eave venting due to use of a sprayer on 1/8" screening. 1/16" screening will likely clog more readily. I'd recommend using a roller for the vent hole portion of the panel.

    • @kazoostudioseast6997
      @kazoostudioseast6997 4 месяца назад

      Hi Tom, Thank you for that question, that's a good point. I was just up at the site today and looked to see if our sprayer had clogged up the mesh. It did not. We spray multiple light coats when we spray and the thickness of the fiber cement soffit was enough to shield the mesh on the inside. I tried to take a photo to share but my phone camera couldn't focus that close up. This is a good thing for people to consider when they are DIY'ing. Those sprayers are tricky to apply even coating without drips and often beginners will over spray creating drips and problems like the one you brought up. If you are doing this work yourself, consider using a roller and brush. Kazoo Shearman, Managing Owner of Shearman Builders

    lol, please educate yourself and remove this nonsense. We call it crowning. In intense fires the entire crown of the tree can ignite instantaneously. On steep slopes and gullies this can cause a chain reaction resulting in flames hundreds of feet high which cause fires to spread incredibly fast. Planting eucalyptus in Spain, Greece, turkey and California etc is shear madness. They will often naturalise and displace local flora.😮
