Regulatory Disclaimer

Trident Ember Defense systems are not fire suppression systems under the California Fire Code (CFC). Our equipment is designed exclusively to pre-wet structures and reduce ignition risk from wildfire embers.

We do not market our products as tools to fight or suppress active fires, or to protect people from fire. Our systems do not detect fire, and they do not discharge extinguishing agents automatically. Because they are portable, seasonal, and manually operated, Trident Ember Defense products fall outside CFC Chapter 9 requirements.

As a result, Trident is classified as a ”finished product” under the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). That means:

No permits required No C-16 fire protection contractors needed No 6–18 month installation delays

Instead, our kits are installed quickly by standard licensed contractors — or delivered straight to homeowners — making ember defense accessible today, not years from now.
