It's been discovered that 90% of California homes lost to wildfires succumb to embers, not flames themselves. Embers can travel miles in the air and have the potential to land on your home's exterior, and enter your attic through vents and gaps in the roofing -- significantly elevating the risk of a fire starting. To combat this, homeowners are increasingly investing in home hardening in Southern California, ensuring that their most valuable asset is protected from these embers.
Maintain Code Compliance and Protect Your Home
At August Roofing & Solar, we've been providing homeowners with top-tier roofing services since 1991, and we offer code-compliant ventilation systems that can help keep your home safe from embers. We're 5-star accredited by the Better Business Bureau and participate in Los Angeles's Certified Licensed Contractor Program. Rest assured, we'll provide you with state-of-the-art roof venting in Southern California for years of peace of mind performance.
Southern California Retrofitted Roof Venting Systems and Upgrades
We specialize in fire management venting in Southern California and offer two options: new ventilation system installations and retrofit upgrades. Whether you're constructing a new home and need code-compliant vents or you'd like to retrofit your home with a modern system for safety, we can help.
Our attic ventilation helps with fire protection in a few ways:
- Embers and Other Airborne Debris Are Caught By Screens and Extinguished
- Particles Are Blocked From Entering Your Attic and Accessing Fire-Prone Building Materials
- Entry of Harmful Contaminants is Alleviated, Helping Protect Your Family from Unhealthy Air Circulating in Your Home
Your attic ventilation will still function like normal, too, ensuring that proper airflow enters your attic and keeps your home free of moisture build-up, condensation, and mold.
Premium Roof Hardening Ventilation Products
Our team works exclusively with O'Hagin Fire & Ice flame and ember-resistant vents and Vulcan Vents.
- Both of these manufacturers can be retrofitted to any existing ventilation system.
- They can be installed on a wide range of homes and roofing types and particularly impactful for the tile roofing common here in Southern California.
No matter how your home is constructed, you can enjoy our home protection roofing services.
