Engineered from Experience. Built for Protection.
Emco Fire Systems develops modular, app-controlled wildfire protection equipment designed for homeowners. Founded by Avery Allen, the company brings practical manufacturing and construction experience to property protection.
Why I Started Emco Fire Systems
I didn't start Emco Fire Systems because I wanted to build another fire product. I started it because I saw homeowners losing everything while the technology to help them simply didn't exist.
After witnessing the devastating wildfires that destroyed thousands of homes across California, I recognized a clear gap between what homeowners needed and what was actually available.
My name is Avery Allen, and I've spent more than 15 years designing, engineering, and building custom solutions across the manufacturing and construction industries.
That experience, combined with a lifelong passion for engineering and problem-solving, led to the development of a practical, scalable solution for one of the most pressing challenges facing homeowners today.

Our Journey
From the initial idea through prototypes, testing, and production preparation, Emco has focused on creating equipment homeowners can set up and operate.
The Idea
Develop a modular, homeowner-operated approach to wildfire property protection.
Early Prototypes
Turn initial designs into working equipment for testing and refinement.
First Successful Tests
Demonstrate equipment operation and water delivery in documented test conditions.
Patent Pending
Pursue patent protection for Emco's technology.
Production Preparation
Prepare equipment, assembly processes, and onboarding for customer orders.
Continued Development
Improve components and expand compatible configurations through ongoing testing.
From Concept to Reality
Our development process combines design, fabrication, testing, and refinement before equipment moves into production.
1. Concept
Identify a practical problem and develop an equipment design.
2. Prototype
Build working components and refine their operation.
3. Testing
Evaluate water delivery, controls, connectivity, and equipment performance.
4. Production
Assemble, configure, test, and quality-check equipment before shipment.
What We Believe
- Equipment should be straightforward to set up and operate.
- Different properties need different configurations.
- Modular components should allow owners to expand over time.
- Testing should inform design improvements.
- Suppression equipment belongs within a broader wildfire preparedness plan.
What We've Learned Through Testing
Testing Matters
Wind, water supply, equipment placement, and connectivity affect operation. Testing helps us evaluate those factors.
Every Property Is Different
Home size, landscaping, terrain, and water access influence equipment selection and placement.
Preparation Matters
Equipment should be set up and checked before conditions become unsafe.
Modular Systems Can Evolve
Compatible components can be added or reconfigured as needs change.
Our Commitment to You
Develop practical, easy-to-use wildfire protection equipment and support homeowners in understanding its setup and operation.
Designed
Equipment developed around practical homeowner needs.
Engineered
Hardware and controls developed to work together as a system.
Tested
Equipment evaluated through documented demonstrations and field testing.
Assembled
Systems assembled and checked before shipment.
Supported
Guidance for equipment selection, setup, and operation.
Designed, Engineered, and Assembled in the USA.
