The Stat-X First Responder® makes a significant difference in the outcome of this home fire by suppressing the fire and limiting the damage. “This picture is from the home fire yesterday. We used two units of a new product, called Stat-X First Responders, that we are carrying in our command vehicles. Both of them were deployed through the window. The first one was dropped behind the appliances and the second was thrown farther inside the room. It helped control the fire until the fire truck arrived. These portable fire suppression devices did a great job yesterday and so did our crew. As you can see from the picture, the papers above the dryer are barely charred. The homeowner’s son helped minimize the damage in the rest of the home by shutting the door from the kitchen into the mud/laundry room. This helped contain most of the smoke to that room and the garage. The family was able to stay in the home.”
