Inflatable Fire House Copyright 06/2008 Chris Barrett
Please be aware of a Boulder Balloon company desperately and unethically selling this product idea as their own! If you have any questions please call myself or any of these Fire Chiefs. Thank you!
This 3 room Inflatable Fire House is the original design created by product designer Chris Barrett. The idea for this fire house was from Chris's good friend and Deputy Chief Dave Ramos. Dave gave Chris the idea after his experiences managing the fire safety trailer at his own department.
During the design process, Chris met Deputy Chief Dave Friedel and Chief Gerry Morrell of the Lafayette Fire Dept. They agreed to purchase the first prototype house and test it out.
After talking with Dave and Dave, the objectives for the new Fire Education House were:
Portable and Affordable, Performs Education and Smoke Fire Drills, Fits inside an Elementary School, Gets Attention and Fun for kids without the liabilities of a bounce house. I am still trying to find ways to lower the cost, that is the priority for all my education products!
The First Video for the Inflatable Fire Education House was produced with great help from Scott Pribble of Arvada Fire District. The new video was made at Peak to Peak K-12 Charter School, Deputy Chief David Friedel and the Lafayette Fire Department.
