Class A Foam Use Guidelines • Direct Attack - apply to base of flame. • Indirect Attack - lay out wet line and burn out. • Apply to structure (roof and siding) 10-15 minutes before fire arrives. Preparing Structure • Determine if residents are home. • Place ladder on side with least fire threat and away from power drop. • Clean roof of combustible materials. • Cover vents. • Remove and scatter fuels away from structure (ladder fuels, wood piles, etc.). • Clear area around above-ground fuel tank, shutting off tank. • Place combustible outside furniture inside structure. • Close windows and doors, including garage, leaving unlocked. AS A LAST RESORT, YOU MAY NEED TO USE STRUCTURE AS REFUGE. • Have garden hose(s) charged. 15
