Private firefighting companies primarily serve federal government contracts and insurers, not individual homeowners, contrary to popular perception about their role.
Deborah Miley, representing over 300 private firefighting companies, explains that their contracts with private clients are recent and constitute a minor part of the industry.
Executives emphasize the misconception that private firefighters mainly protect homes on-site, stating this only accounts for less than 1% of their business.
Jess Wills, of Firestorm Wildland Fire Suppression, clarifies that their focus is on federal wildfire suppression, not providing on-demand residential fire protection.
