Sonic Fire Tech, the firetech startup pioneering next-generation wildfire protection, has recently announced the commercial rollout of its Sonic Home Defense system, the first residential wildfire defense solution to use infrasound technology to prevent ignition without water, chemicals, or delay. The company has been named a CES 2026 Innovation Awards® Honoree by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) for this breakthrough system, recognizing its leadership in redefining home wildfire defense through safe, sustainable innovation in the Smart Home product category.
As wildfire seasons grow longer, hotter, and more destructive, Sonic Fire Tech is bringing its NASA-inspired technology directly to homeowners on the frontlines. The system autonomously detects and neutralizes embers, the cause of over 90% of wildfire-related home ignitions, before they spark, using low-frequency, inaudible sound waves. No water. No flooding. No foam. No collateral damage. Just safe, silent, zero-damage protection inside and out. Sonic Fire Tech aligns with IBHS and California State Zone Zero Perimeter Defense guidelines for wildfire-prepared homes.
With its first installations underway in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and Lake Tahoe, and hundreds of homeowners requesting demos, Sonic Fire Tech is fast becoming the leading name in residential wildfire defense.
