    Q. What is Thermo-Gel?

    A. Thermo-Gel is a Class-A fire retardant gel concentrate that when added to water transforms water into a fire preventing and heat absorbing gel. This gel adheres to any kind of surface, even to vertical window panes and forms a protective layer of gel that cools and protects objects from heating, charring and flame impingement. This gel can also be used for bringing fires under control more quickly. Water and time savings of up to 50% are possible. Thermo-Gel is U.S. Forest Service approved and meets NFPA 1150 standard.
