Did you know that on 20th of April, Exmouth will experience a Total Solar Eclipse? Critical Fire has played a small role in ensuring this once in a lifetime event runs smoothly and safely. Critical Fire were selected to provide fire fighting equipment and associated infrastructure, following a public tender process, to support temporary accommodation sites in the town. Works involved:
• Layout design and engineering in accordance with Australian Standards
• Designing, procuring and installing over 70 motion activated solar lights showing paths of travel and fire equipment locations
• Core drilling and installing over 70 steel poles
• Supplying and Installing over 80 fire extinguishers, signage and cover bags
• Dry hire of a fire fighting trailer
2 of our team traveled to the world heritage area late in March and completed the works to a strict deadline, while working in temperatures over 40 degrees. We will return once the eclipse has occurred and reinstate the area back to its original condition.
