Ace Fire Defense to Participate in Bell Canyon Community Safety Fair on December 13
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
November 11, 2026
California wildfire preparedness company joins community organizations to promote homeowner education and emergency readiness.
BELL CANYON, CALIFORNIA — November 11, 2026 — Ace Fire Defense is honored to participate in the upcoming Bell Canyon Community Safety Fair on Sunday, December 13, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at the Bell Canyon Community Center.
The community event will bring together residents and emergency preparedness organizations for an afternoon focused on practical steps families can take to prepare for emergencies.
The event will feature wildfire preparedness information with the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) and Ventura County Fire, flood and mudslide preparedness, earthquake readiness, emergency kits, hands-only CPR, and basic first aid.
For Ace Fire Defense founder Sherwin Ross, the event represents an opportunity to share a mission that grew out of personal experience.
Following his experience during the devastating 2018 Woolsey Fire, Ross became CERT-trained and developed a commitment to helping homeowners better understand wildfire preparedness and residential fire-defense equipment.
That commitment led to the creation of Ace Fire Defense, a company providing homeowners with fire hoses, professional-grade nozzles, valves, fittings, and related wildfire preparedness equipment.
At the fair, Ace Fire Defense will demonstrate how a backyard swimming pool can become a homeowner's own water source in a wildfire. The company's Pool Pro Kit pairs a gas-powered Honda WH20 pump, the same model firefighters use, with attack hose, a fog nozzle and suction hose. It needs no electricity, so it keeps working if the power is shut off. For local customers, Ace Fire Defense installs the system and trains the household hands-on, at no charge.
"A pool holds thousands of gallons of water sitting right in your backyard," said Ross. "We set it up, we train you and your family until you can do it yourself, and we don't charge for that. That's how a whole neighborhood gets ready."
"Wildfire preparedness is about much more than buying a fire hose or a nozzle. It's about understanding the risks around your property, knowing your equipment, preparing your family, and making responsible decisions before an emergency happens," said Sherwin Ross, founder of Ace Fire Defense.
"Community education is extremely important to us. We're honored to be part of an event that brings residents and emergency preparedness resources together."
Ace Fire Defense encourages homeowners to take a comprehensive approach to wildfire readiness, including maintaining defensible space, addressing home ignition vulnerabilities, understanding available water resources, preparing emergency supplies, and developing evacuation plans.
The company also emphasizes that residential fire-defense equipment does not replace professional firefighters, emergency services, or evacuation instructions.
