Boosting the fire-rating of an ADU 20ft from shrubs.

Snap ADU was tasked to build an ADU in San Diego. For those not familiar, an ADU is an Accessory Dwelling Unit used for a variety of purposes in people’s backyards. Sometimes it’s a rental property or a guest house.

This ADU was to sit about 20ft from shrubs. The project called for the flame-stalling capabilities of Firepoint.

Firepoint saved material costs and the need for multiple crews. Better yet, the homeowner has peace of mind that whomever occupies their ADU is protected.

What people from the project are saying.

“I would definitely use Firepoint on my own project to boost my home’s resilience.”
