Roof-mounted and perimeter nozzles create a 360° humidity bubble around your entire property. Water saturates the building envelope — roof, walls, eaves, and surrounding vegetation — preventing ember ignition and cutting radiant heat absorption before the fire front arrives.
Supply lines trace the ridge and eaves. Heads sit at engineered points. When activated, coverage zones overlap into one continuous envelope around the structure.

Engineering noteOff-grid capable — the system does not depend on mains pressure or grid power to run.
The four stages every Prodigy system runs through — from first ember sensed to a saturated, defended structure.
Stage 01 · Detect
Know before the fire arrives.
Prodigy's flame detection units watch your property around the clock, identifying threats at up to 500m, while EmberWatch tracks live fire movement and pushes alerts to your phone the moment danger heads your way.
At this stage
IR3 flame detection several miles away (line of sight)
EmberWatch live fire alerts to your phone
Penetrates smoke; no camera or particulate required
Miles-Range DetectionEmberWatch Live AlertsWorks Through Smoke
Detection to response
The system thinks before the fire arrives.
Ember detection sensors identify airborne embers before the fire front. EmberWatch alerts you, and the system activates — remotely or autonomously.

The detection units we deploy.
Round-the-clock perimeter monitoring that can trigger the system automatically — even when no one is home. Region-matched hardware, deployed where it's certified.
Optect Current Canada & USA
Long-Range IR3 Flame Detection
The world's first optically enhanced long-range IR3 flame detector. When facing a wildfire approach path, Optect can identify flames several miles away, providing critical early warning that gives your system time to work and your family time to evacuate. Detects a single candle at 20m. Penetrates smoke by reading combustion wavelengths, not particles or images. Winner of Life Saving Solution of the Year. Featured on BBC.

How Wildfire Sprinkler Systems Work
Prodigy exterior wildfire sprinkler systems use roof-mounted nozzles to create a 360-degree humidity bubble around structures. The system includes ember detection sensors, remote smartphone activation, and programmable cycle times. Water saturates the building envelope — roof, walls, eaves, and surrounding vegetation — preventing ember ignition and reducing radiant heat absorption.
Wildfire Protection by Region
California wildfire protection and sprinkler systems. Colorado wildfire defence. Oregon and Washington fire protection. British Columbia wildfire sprinklers — FireSmart compliant. Alberta wildfire defence. Ontario fire protection systems. Australian bushfire protection — BAL-rated sprinkler systems for NSW, Victoria, and Queensland.
Ember Attack Prevention
Ember attack is the number one cause of home destruction during wildfires. Embers can travel over 20 kilometres ahead of the fire front at temperatures of 1,200°C. Up to 90% of homes lost in wildfires are destroyed by ember attack, not direct flames. Prodigy exterior sprinkler systems neutralise embers on contact.
Wildfire Insurance & Property Value
A permanent wildfire sprinkler system can help maintain property insurance coverage in fire-prone areas where insurers are withdrawing. Many insurers offer premium discounts for properties with permanent wildfire protection. Systems increase property value and transfer to new owners at point of sale.
