Brandguard Vents F.A.Q.
BRANDGUARD VENTS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The following section addresses many of the questions asked by architects, builders, roofing contractors, and distributors regarding Brandguard Vents™ line of Fire Prevention attic ventilation products.
How are Brandguard Vents™ different than other vents?
Designed by a firefighter Brandguard Vents™ offer the first and only Flame and Ember resistant vent of its kind on the market. It should be used on the roof, under-eaves, foundation and/or sides of residential or commercial buildings located in Wildland Interface Areas- those areas which may be susceptible to wild fires or embers from wind driven wildfires. It can be used in both new construction and retrofits. It is also a good idea to use them in Urban/Suburban areas where homes are located in close proximity to one another to prevent fire spread during a house fire.
What are the features and benefits?
Brandguard Vents™ resists the intrusion of flame and embers into your attic through the building’s vents, thus protecting your home from dangerous wildfires. Most homes catch fire from the Fire Embers entering through the vulnerable openings in the Attic’s vents, catching the attic on fire. Brandguard Vent’s™ patented baffle front design virtually eliminates this risk.
Provides comparable airflow- Brandguard Vents™ protects your building while providing similar or MORE airflow than some standard vents.
Meets new fire code effective 1/2008- Brandguard Vents™ are the first and only available vent of its kind to meet the new Wildland Urban Interface codes effective 1/2008 which states VENTS SHALL RESIST FLAME AND EMBER INTRUSION.
