Transparent answers.

What FireGuard GT is designed to do, what is still unproven, and what has not been decided.

Can FireGuard GT extinguish a fire deep inside compacted trash?

That is a central engineering challenge. Dense waste can prevent agents from reaching an ignition source. FireGuard GT is evaluating detection and mitigation strategies, but deep-core extinguishment must be demonstrated through controlled testing.

Is FireGuard GT available for purchase?

The platform is currently in development. Interested fleets and partners can contact the team to discuss pilot participation and future availability.

Will it fit my garbage truck?

The architecture is intended to support multiple refuse-truck configurations. Actual fitment will depend on vehicle make, body design, available space, power and safety requirements.

Does the system automatically dump burning trash?

No automatic unloading capability is being offered as a validated standard feature. Any unloading procedure must be safe, controlled, compliant and coordinated with operator and emergency-response protocols.

Will it protect against lithium-ion battery thermal runaway?

Lithium-ion battery events can reignite and propagate. The system may help with detection and surrounding fire mitigation, but battery thermal-runaway control requires specific testing and must not be guaranteed.

How much will it cost?

Pricing has not been finalized. The development objective is a practical, fleet-accessible product with transparent installation and maintenance costs.

How is the system maintained?

A proposed service program includes sensor diagnostics, visual inspections, pressure/agent checks where applicable, and documented periodic maintenance. Final intervals will follow component approvals and test results.

Is it certified?

No certification should be claimed until the relevant equipment and complete installation have completed applicable third-party evaluation and approval.

Can we join a pilot?

Yes. Submit the fleet inquiry form with truck types, fleet size and contact information to start a development discussion.

Can insurers or OEMs collaborate?

Yes. FireGuard GT welcomes conversations about test design, installation, underwriting evidence and integration pathways.

Your next truck fire should not be your first plan.

Help shape a practical, affordable safety platform for refuse fleets. We are seeking fleet operators, municipal partners, OEMs, and fire-protection specialists for development discussions and pilot planning.
