Tips to Minimize the Risk of Wildfire Damage

Wildfires pose a serious threat to homes and businesses across the country. This is especially true in California and the arid Western and Southwest regions. Unfortunately, sometimes nothing can prevent a fire from doling out devastating losses. But with proactive planning, your business stands a better chance of minimizing risk.

Act before fire season arrives, and on an ongoing basis. Take these precautions with your Sacramento commercial property:

  • Mark your property's entrance with clearly visible, legible signage.
  • Reduce potential kindling on a regular basis. Trim lawns, rake leaves, and clear debris from roofs and rain gutters.
  • Trim low-hanging tree branches above and around your property.
  • Hang fire-resistant draperies on windows for added protection.
  • Store flammable liquids, solvents, and other materials in metal containers. Keep them at least 30 feet from your building, wooden fences, or other structures on your property.
  • Cover all exterior openings or crevices (vents, eaves, attics) with metal mesh screens no larger than 1/4 inch. This blocks both accumulated debris and wayward sparks.
  • Keep hydrants, ponds, and other water sources easily accessible to the fire department.

If your business or commercial property is in the potential path of an active wildfire, take the following actions:

  • Turn off propane tanks.
  • Close all interior doors and windows to prevent drafts.
  • Shut off gas at the meter. Only a qualified professional can safely turn the gas back on.
