Are my windows at risk?
Windows are one of the most vulnerable parts of a home because the glass can break under extended heat and let embers and flames enter your home. Installing double-pane tempered glass with metal-clad window frames can lower this risk. Adding metal screens, storm windows, or protective shutters can also help keep embers out of the home.
Why should I retrofit my home for wildfire resistance?
Retrofitting your home can significantly improve its wildfire resistance, making it safer and more durable in the face of increasing wildfire risks. Here are some other benefits:
Your property may be easier to defend
During a wildfire, fire crews tend to defend structures that have the best chance of survival.
May be beneficial for obtaining insurance or keeping a lower premium
Potentially qualify for lower premiums with wildfire mitigation improvements.
May increase home value
A wildfire-resistant home may be more attractive to potential buyers, increasing its resale value.
Protect your community
Reducing your own risk also benefits your neighbors by reducing the likelihood of a fire spreading in your community.
Cost savings
Many retrofits are affordable and offer long-term savings on maintenance and repairs.
