The First & Only Fully Accredited Fire Safety Bunkers
Our original and industry leading 6 person Personal Fire Safety Bunker has been accredited for use in Victoria by the Building Commission of Victoria. Our accreditation Certificate stipulates that the bunker can be used on sites classified up to 'Bushfire Attack Level - Flame Zone (BAL-FZ), the highest bushfire risk level under the relevant Australian Standard.
Subject to individual site assessment, the WSB is also approved for use in principle by the Building Rules Assessment Commission in South Australia. While there are currently no specific Government accreditation processes for Wildfire Safety Bunkers in other States and Territories or Federally, subject to obtaining local planning approval, the performance characteristics of the WSB mean it is suitable for use in all Australian State & Territories. We can advise you further on specific state regulations.
Our 6 person bunkers external dimensions are – 2.0 m wide x 2.6 m long x 2.1 m high. They are delivered to site as a factory finished unit and simply craned into position or delivered in two halves and joined on site.
Our 12 person bunkers external dimensions are – 2.4 m wide x 4.2 m long x 2.4 m high. These units are delivered to site as three separate components and are joined on site by our qualified installers.
Both units are passive air supply only and can give refuge for up to one (1) hour.
Our Wildfire Safety Bunker construction is of Concrete and Stainless Steel to all exposed surfaces and a ventilation system ensures air circulation through the bunker when not in use – this is necessary to keep air moisture levels down in the bunker while not operating. It is essential to ensure that the ventilation system is closed when taking shelter in the event of a fire.
Installation and transport are variable depending on location (Bunkers are delivered by Crane Truck where possible) and site conditions (e.g. : excavation in rock ?). We will advise you on the appropriate site location and installation of our Fire Bunker. We can also advise you on Council Planning and State Building Code requirements to install one of our units on your site.
Cost – prices start at $11,500.00 plus GST - transport and installation.
