Defensible space is a buffer zone, a minimum 30 foot non-combustible area around your home that reduces the intensity and risk of a wildfire from starting or spreading to your home. Defensible space depends on clearing flammable material away from your home. Although a 30 foot distance is standard, additional clear ance as great as 100 feet may be nec essary as the slope of your lot in creases. Defensible space not only helps protect your home in the critical min utes it takes a fire to pass, it also gives firefighters an area to work in. Dur ing a large scale fire, when many homes are at risk, firefighters must focus on homes they can safely de fend. Here are some hints you as a homeowner can do to make your home more fire-safe: Reduce flammable vegetation, trees and brush around your home. Remove or prune tress Cut grass and weeds regularly. Relocate wood piles and leftover building materials. Keep them at least 30 from your home. Keep your roof, gutters and yard clcanl Clean out leaves and debris, remove dead branches within 10' of your chimney. I lave addresses and road signs vis ible to allow firefighters and other emergency personnel to find your home easily, Rate your roof- if you have a wood shake roof consider replacement to make it more fire-resistive. If you have a fireplace or woodstovc, install an approved spark arrcstor on your chimney. Help keep your home in the safety zone!
