What Is Fire Prevention Clearance?

Fire prevention clearance — often referred to as defensible space — is the process of clearing flammable vegetation and creating safe zones around buildings and property lines. California law (Public Resources Code 4291) requires most homes in fire-prone areas to maintain a defensible space of at least 100 feet around structures.
