Budget estimate

$250,000 – $450,000

The flash‑over simulator is a high‑spec, steel‑framed fire‑training system with integrated ventilation, insulation, and a one‑day instructor component. Comparable commercial fire‑training simulators range from $200 k to $500 k depending on size, materials, and optional training services. Assuming CAL FIRE’s specifications (20 ft module, 10‑person chamber, full HVAC, and warranty), the contract value is likely in the $250 k–$450 k range. Factors influencing the final amount include material costs, customization of paint colors, freight (FOB Destination), and any additional training or warranty extensions.
