Fire-resistant vents
help your home protect itself.

The smallest spaces on a home can be the most vulnerable. Wind-blown embers fly for miles ahead of the actual flames, entering the home through attic vents or crawlspace vents. Combustible materials have the potential to ignite, essentially burning the home from the inside out.

Approved and recommended
by the ones that matter most.

Vulcan Vents are California Building Code Chapter 7A- compliant and approved by the State Fire Marshal (SFM). In fact, new homes built in the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) in California are required to include ember-resistant vents under Ch. 7A. Vulcan Vents have met the standard requirements under the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) E2886 and sufficiently passed the ASTM E119 one-hour fire test to effectively block ember entry.

Vulcan Vents are used and trusted by construction and insurance companies nationwide for good reason.

What makes Vulcan Vents the #1 fire and ember-safe vent?

How do
fire-safe vents work?

Vulcan Vents are designed for fire protection. Our corrosion-resistant, stainless steel ember mesh blocks dangerous embers during ember attacks long before the fire arrives. When a wildfire nears and the vent reaches critical temperature, the intumescent coating on the honeycomb matrix will expand, creating a protective fire wall. This allows your building’s exterior to do it’s job at resisting ignition!
