What is Bushfire Safety?
Bushfire Safety is essential to protect both the people and nature. They are necessary in order to keep Australian landscapes healthy. Bushfires naturally happen due to weather and plant reasons. However, because of other influencers like climate change, fires can become bigger and more dangerous. Since they are in the middle of nature, they can burn and create harm for a long time before anyone notices.
How to ensure safety during bushfires?
There are ways to make sure bushfires do not cause more harm than good. One of them is to monitor them closely. It is possible to achieve this by creating safety stations. This would mean having a human presence during the time of the year where bushfires are the strongest. By doing this, it can become easier to avoid more danger or even death. Communicating clearly and loudly is essential in those situations to both warn about risk and reduce it. Using sound and beacons alarms can help alert higher numbers of people. This can allow citizens to evacuate quickly and for help to be more efficient
Why Hazavoid?
Hazavoid is a system developed in Australia, with an approach that is both local and eco-conscious. Because it is wireless, it can work in natural sites easily and without risks. Both the WiLAS and Wilert Systems can rest on poles and use power from a battery. They can also use solar panels to never run out when you need them. The Hazavoid Wireless Alarm System (pictured above) is the World’s Most Reliable Wireless Alarm System and will create clear loud messages for others to hear.
One can use it with the Hazavoid Wireless Alert Beacon System for visual signaling. With different sound and color options, both systems are complementary and fully personalisable.
In situations where time is limited, those solutions are essential.
