Windows

How to reduce the vulnerability of windows

• When replacing windows, choose multi-pane options containing tempered glass.
• If neighbors or outbuildings are within 30-feet of the home, consider installing deployable noncombustible shutters to provide additional protection.
• Install screens in all operable windows. Screens increase ember resistance by keeping embers out of the home and also decrease radiant heat exposure.
• Close windows when wildfire is threatening.
