Providing Everything You Need, To Survive the Next One
Fire Rating of a product is generated through testing by a certified testing agency. With roofs the rating is from Class A (Ability to resist Sever Fire) to D (Combustable)
Most other ratings reflect on a time that the asembly can withstand fire. From 20 minuets to several hours
The two most noted ignition points for wind driven fire is
the roof and ventilation openings.
Vents
The average home in the western U.S. is stick frame, with an attic or ventilation system in the top part of the structure. Most are built without a fire-resistant system. The good news is that (in most cases) this can be addressed. The solution is either an added barrier or a shutter system. We can advise you on this, and you can even do it yourself, and we can advise you on the materials. (We do sell the supplies)
ROOFS
The three most common Pitched roofs are Shingles, Tile and Metal. All three come in a wide variation of colors and styles. When it comes to fire all three can be an excelent choise. THEY NEED TO BE INSTALLED WITH WIND-DRIVEN FIRE-RESISTANCE IN MIND! The Entire assembly must be installed properly, the flashings, underlayment, vents sealing and hip and ridge must all be taken into account.
The three most common Low Sloped roofs are Modified Bitumen, Cap Sheet and TPO.
Properly installed these are Fire resistant, not nesessarly Class A though, but several are not installed properly.
Other entry points include windows, siding, adjacent structures, and any opening through which fire can enter, the envelope, or the interior of the structure.

We Are Researching Intumescent Coatings?
We are researching fire-resistant coatings because they can save the affected population in high-fire locations billions (probably trillions) of dollars and inconvenience. Simply paint your wood siding or remove it and install stucco or another solution. There are also tens of thousands of structures that just don't lend themselves to the change in architectural style. If it can be used as a solution it can also save fences, eaves, outbuildings a myriad of structures - Updates SOON

Fire resistant windows
The best windows for fire resistance are metal dual-pane tempered glass. These windows generally have the best insulation and sound-deadening qualities. There are other ways to make windows more fire-resistant.
