TLTL shelter

Post by eddy »

With fire season nearly here this simple test needs doing so I sent this to the people who did the last test at Mogo.

Hi this is the email I sent to the prime minister.

Sorry to appear pushy but the fire season is nearly upon us and a TLTL shelter needs to be tested now
After thinking more about smoke blackening the stainless steel, I realised that even though the smoke at Cobargo was so thick a neighbour crashed his quad bike into a dozer blade my daughters unpainted brick house suffered no discolouration and neither did brick chimneys where the whole house burnt down.
With this in mind I believe it is only combustible material that turns black so for the small cost I think it would be worth testing just one sheet of mirror grade stainless steel.

Found this interesting link that uses a reflective material nearly as good as my TLTL garden shed http://www.solartran.com.au/radiant-hea ... ection.htm

This is the email I sent to farsouthcoast.team@rfs.nsw.gov.au Sunday

Hi

I dropped in to the CSIRO fire testing place at Mogo and luckily was shown around the test site which was waiting for a bricklayer from Victoria to finish the next test.

The firefighter I spoke to said many more homes would have survived if they had been defended by their owners and that made me think perhaps insurance companies may give a reduction in premiums if a TLTL shelter encouraged more owners to stay and defend.

Just like any vaccine it would be tested at mogo followed by animal testing then volunteer humans with me being the first.
