Vulcan Vent manufactures fire-resistant vents designed to help protect homes in wildfire-prone and Wildland-Urban Interface areas. Golden State Lumber and Showroom helps construction professionals and homeowners find Vulcan Vent fire-resistant vent and ventilation products for wildfire-prone homes, Wildland-Urban Interface projects, and exterior ventilation in Northern California.
Vulcan Vents will keep dangerous embers from entering the ventilation areas of your home even when the fire is still far away. Vulcan Vents are fire- and ember-safe vents designed to self-close. A catching screen blocks embers during attacks before the fire arrives. When a wildfire nears and the vent reaches the critical temperature, the intumescent coating on the matrix structure expands, creating a real ‘firewall.’ It’s estimated that 90% of the homes destroyed during wildfires are due to wind-blown embers. Wind-blown embers can travel miles ahead of wildfire. Embers can shower into attic vents and eave spaces of neighboring houses. The secret is in Vulcan Vent’s patented design! Beyond the standard frame design is their unique expanded hexagon core, coated with an intumescent coating from Firefree Coatings Inc..
