  VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Jul 30 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Two properties worth a combined $2 million are still standing and safe
today thanks to ARA Safety's Fire Interruption Technology and the fire
departments that have this powerful tool in their toolbox.

    In Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, a mansion could have suffered
significant fire damage after the vintage car in its garage caught fire,
but it didn't. Two Fire Interruption Technology devices deployed into the
large garage by the Assistant Chief, held the fire at bay while crews
arrived and stretched lines. Incredibly, damage was contained almost
entirely to the garage.

    In rural Sechelt, BC, the fire department contained a storage room fire
with Fire Interruption Technology before it could spread to the house.
FIT was deployed eleven minutes before water was available, saving the
family's home. This is the fourth time the Sechelt Fire Department has
saved property with Fire Interruption Technology.

    To see pictures and read the full stories of the above FIT-5 deployments
