Wildfire defense is all we do
Ember Pro USA was founded in Southern California — one of the most wildfire-exposed regions in the country — by two environmental scientists, Jim Sprouse and Ryan Kresan. Both hold degrees in Environmental Studies, and Jim is a Certified Wildfire Defense Specialist. They started the company on a conviction the fire science keeps proving out: whether a home survives a wildfire isn’t luck. It comes down to engineering — the roof, the vents, the defensible space, and how the house handles the wind-driven embers that arrive long before the flames. So they built a company that does one thing, and does it properly: defend Southern California homes against wildfire.
That scientific background shapes everything we do. We don’t hand out generic checklists. Every home we protect starts with an assessment of how fire actually behaves on that specific property — the local fire corridors, the wind, the radiant heat, and the ember exposure — and ends with a defense plan engineered to measurably reduce its vulnerability, using non-toxic, professionally installed systems. You get a detailed, line-item proposal and insurance-ready documentation built for underwriter review. No fear tactics, no one-size-fits-all package — just a clear picture of your risk and an honest plan to lower it. We’re a fully licensed California contractor (CSLB #1142407), members of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), fully insured, and an active member of the Fallbrook Chamber of Commerce.
