**Safeguard Your Home with Reliable Fire Defense Equipment**

Recent wildfires in Pacific Palisades and Altadena have underscored a vital lesson for homeowners: the necessity of effective fire defense equipment, especially during fierce, wind-driven firestorms. When the time comes to evacuate, the right tools can make a significant difference in safeguarding your property as you leave.

At Ace Fire Defense, we believe in the power of preparedness and professional fire defense equipment. While we do not advocate for fighting structure fires, having the right tools on hand is crucial. Our equipment empowers you to tackle the immediate threats, such as embers carried by the wind that can ignite your home from afar. This serves as a last line of defense, allowing you to take action even if you've already evacuated your family.

Our BMFXL.01 Heavy Fire Hose is designed for simplicity and effectiveness, requiring minimal training to operate. Our website offers a wealth of resources, including instructional videos that illustrate the best techniques for fire defense. From utilizing fire hydrants to connecting our solid brass WYE valve and turning on the water, we provide step-by-step guidance. You’ll also find instructions on properly folding hoses and understanding the differences between National Pipe (NP) and National Hose (NH/NST) threads, which are standard in firefighting equipment.

The key takeaway from the recent wildfires is the importance of preparation. Don’t wait until an emergency arises to secure your home against fire threats. Our commitment to quality is unparalleled; we manufacture our products to ensure you can rely on our equipment when it matters most. With robust XL Seamless Aluminum Couplings designed to withstand pressure, double the weight and thickness creating a new product that no one else has. Thicker single jacket with xl couplings, can be used over and over. FM Approvals hoses approved for occupant are recommended to be used once. FM Approvals must be discarded after 5 years of factory manufacturing date.

Our NFPA 1962 requirements stand the test of time. We went back to the roots of manufacturing fire hoses that were created 60 years ago before money saving techniques were put in place. We listened to our customers and firefighter professionals who carry the BMF XL.01 Heavy on their trucks.

We last longer, you can trust Ace for every day use, you can trust that our tools will perform in critical situations.

At Ace Fire Defense, we pride ourselves on being a trustworthy brand—honest, affordable, and deeply committed to supporting our community. Together, we can foster a safer environment for ourselves and our neighbors. If you have any questions or need assistance in choosing the right equipment, We are right here in Woolsey Canyon to guide you.

Why choose Ace Fire Defense?

Our passion for service led us to innovate in a space that was largely overlooked.

“I'm a 35 yr firefighter veteran. In my retirement I purchased some firehose and equipment to protect my home from recent wild land fires. Amazon refused to ship the order due to the fire so the owner literally packed it all up in his car and personally delivered it to our door the same day. The products are top notch quality and the customer service is fantastic. Thank you so much.” Captain Dave Delay

Good for residential use.

I’m a retired firefighter with 34 years of experience. My home is susceptible to wild land fires. Fortunately, I have a fire hydrant 200 feet from my house. I bought several sections of hose and nozzles to protect the house in the event of a fire. The quality of the products is on the light duty side, but is perfectly acceptable for occasionally use. The Los Angeles fires were a wake up call. I looked at my own home with a more critical eye and realized how much combustible material I had on or near my house. Now that the exterior of my house has been tidied up along with the addition of fire hose and nozzles, as well as goggles and gloves, and a nomex hood. I feel much more prepared if something should blow through. Be careful and pick your battles. I could have scrounged older hoes from my former fire department, but I did not feel it was worth the risk, older hoes can fail without notice. My neighborhood is situated in such a way if everything goes to shit and I have to run for my life I have many safe areas of refuge.

A+ there is no price that can be attached to peace of mind for my family.

This is a A+ review for Sherwin Ross and his small business ACE Fire Preparedness Defense.

On January 14th 2025 at the height of the unprecedented, catastrophic fires in Los Angeles. My wife and I felt that it would be prudent to equip our newly rebuilt pool with a fire defense system.

Going into this I knew zero about firefighting equipment.

I contacted Sherwin Ross at ACE Fire Preparedness Defense. The gentleman gladly shared unprecedented advice, and the following equipment in kit form at a reasonable price.

2) 75 ft x 1.5 in fire hose.
2) fire hose nozzles.
1) gated wye valve.
1) fire hydrant wrench.

I attached the above equipment to the fire hydrant down the street and it worked flawlessly with good pressure.

Sherwin Ross provides a great service to our community in the Los Angeles area, sharing his knowledge, and providing me exactly what I needed in stock, no waiting, same day.

Sherwin Ross, thank you my friend, there is no price that can be attached to peace of mind for my family.

BTW, I also purchased a 3" gasoline powered pump from Harbor Freight with 3" suction tube. It pumps a considerable volume of water from my pool. It doesn't have the pressure of a fire hydrant but it shoots about 25 ft. This required a 3" NPT x 2.5" NST adapter to interface with the firefighting equipment.

Next I will be acquiring firefighting turnout gear, personal protective equipment.

Thank you Sherwin Ross for helping me protect my family.

Please, if you live in a wildfire interface whether you chose our products or some one elses, doing something is better than doing nothing.

Installing a 1 1/2" NH / NPT thread standpipe hose and fire hoses on your property can provide several benefits in the event of a fire emergency. Here are some of the key benefits:

  1. Increased Fire Protection: Standpipe hoses and fire hoses provide a reliable source of water for firefighting in the event of a fire. By having these systems in place, you can significantly increase your property's fire protection and minimize the potential damage caused by fire.
  2. Improved Safety: Having a standpipe hose and fire hoses installed on your property can also improve safety by providing an easily accessible water source to help put out fires quickly. This can prevent the fire from spreading and give you and your family more time to evacuate the building safely.
  3. Reduced Response Time: In the event of a fire, time is of the essence. Having a standpipe hose and fire hoses installed on your property can help reduce response time for firefighters. This is because these systems allow firefighters to quickly connect to the water source and start fighting the fire.
  4. Cost-Effective: Installing standpipe hoses and fire hoses is a cost-effective fire protection solution. These systems require minimal maintenance and have a long lifespan, making them a great investment in the long run.
  5. Code Compliance: Many local building codes and fire safety regulations require the installation of standpipe hoses and fire hoses in commercial and multi-story residential buildings. By installing these systems, you can ensure that your property is up to code and compliant with local safety regulations.
  6. Peace of Mind: Having a standpipe hose and fire hoses installed on your property can provide peace of mind. Knowing that you have a reliable and effective fire protection system in place can help you feel more secure in your home or business.

It's important to note that 90% of structure fires are caused by embers carried by wind traveling long distances and easily enters buildings through vents, gaps, and other openings. Once inside, these embers can ignite flammable materials and cause a structure fire to spread quickly.

That's why it's important to take steps to protect your property from embers during a wind-driven fire. This can include installing ember-resistant vents, sealing gaps and cracks in your walls and roof, and creating a defensible space around your property by removing flammable materials.

Additionally, installing a standpipe hose and fire hoses on your property can provide a reliable source of water to help extinguish any embers or fires that may occur. This can significantly increase your property's fire protection and help minimize damage caused by wind-driven fires.

It's important to take all necessary precautions to protect your property from the risks of fire, including wind-driven fires caused by embers. By taking proactive steps to increase your property's fire protection, you can help keep your family and home safe in the event of a fire emergency.

Roofs do not catch on fire, by code, roofs are fire retardant. The task at hand is defending against the embers.

“Around the world, the severity of Extreme Wildfire Events (EWEs) is increasing, driving over 80% of fire-related damages globally and costing approximately $350 billion in damages annually in the United States alone. EWEs spread faster and burn larger areas at higher intensities, wreak havoc on ecosystems, drive up global greenhouse gas emissions, cause long-term global economic burdens, and often result in devastating injuries and loss of life. Despite these high environmental and economic costs, fire management technologies have not evolved significantly in decades, and best practices have not changed in almost a century.” Peter Diamandis

“Imagine a world where humanity and fire can sustainably and safely co-exist. Where wildfires are detected rapidly, accurately, and precisely, allowing for the safe management of environmentally beneficial fires and the swift suppression of destructive fires. Where firefighting has transformed, ensuring the safety of firefighters, society, and ecosystems alike.” Peter Diamandis
