Fire Sprinkler Trailer SPUs are custom enclosed structure protection units with specially designed wildfire sprinklers, portable pumps, high-pressure fire pumps, fire hoses, and various adapters. During emergencies, sprinkler trailers are deployed to assist firefighters and protect communities.

When structures are threatened in a Wildland Urban Interface situation, Fire Sprinkler Trailer SPU equipment is deployed to mitigate damage. Fire hoses and sprinklers are set up to create moisture zones. This operation creates a bubble of humidity over and around structures, keeping roofs and walls wet. This helps to protect combustible structures from the sparks and flaming debris of an approaching wildland fire. With timely deployment, many homes and structures may be saved from fire devastation.
