For most situations, all one really needs are some of the large, 360-degree golf course type sprinklers in each corner of their yard and a controller with a battery backup. One could even tie it into an existing system so there would be very limited plumbing. A low-cost solution would be to buy several of those type heads and tall risers where you could simply unscrew/pull a few existing sprinklers and screw them in if there was a fire nearby. Probably take 10 minutes. Of course this would not take the place of clearing scrub, etc., just supplement other actions.
One could assume that in most instances (at least in the future) that the local reservoir will not be drained for a year for minor repairs...but, you could monitor for that and add storage if necessary.
