 Developed by firefighters for firefighters, Fire Cap is an environmentally friendly wetting agent that extinguishes fires rapidly and eliminates flashback. When mixed properly with water, Fire Cap relaxes the surface tension of water (see illustration) which then expands the wetted surface area and promotes deeper penetration into the surface texture of the burning fuel. Besides putting out the fire, the incidence of heat, smoke, and vapors is significantly reduced.
As a spill stabilizing agent, Fire Cap is an emulsifier that separates the chemical make-up of a contaminant and then renders it non-volatile. In the process, the flammable vapors of a contaminant are reduced or eliminated with no risk to firefighters or HAZMAT personnel. Fire Cap is non-toxic, non-hazardous, and non-corrosive and is effective against all classes of fires except electrical.
Water is Not Free
Water carries with it a number of related costs. Procuring, storing, pumping, transporting, and ultimately disbursing water all require special equipment. By simply reducing usage, the life of the equipment is extended which can mean thousands of dollars saved. In municipalities where the water supply is scarce, the importance of getting the most out of every gallon can’t be overstated.
Your Best Value
Look closely before purchasing any fire suppression product. Some may appear to be less expensive when in fact, they are actually more expensive when you look at concentrations. Fire Cap can be used in one-fourth the concentration of the leading brand. That’s 75% less so be sure to factor in the savings!
