Bushfire Solutions
For Your Home
Bushfires are a real risk in many parts of Australia, and protecting your home requires more than just strong doors and windows. Bulleen Screens understands the requirements set out in the Australian Standard AS 3959: 2018 for buildings in bushfire-prone areas and can provide solutions that help keep your home safe.
How Bulleen Screens Helps
Homes in bushfire-prone areas are vulnerable to radiant heat from flames and windborne embers that can travel long distances and ignite your property. Windows and doors are particularly at risk.
To address this, Bulleen Screens supplies and installs Amplimesh® Fire Attenuation Screens, a high-quality solution that:
- Reduces Radiant Heat: Screens help lower the heat load reaching your windows and doors, especially near the ground or horizontal surfaces where debris may collect.
- Protects Against Flying Embers: The screens act as a barrier to prevent embers and debris from entering your home.
These screens are rigorously tested by the CSIRO, withstanding intense heat for extended periods and reducing radiant heat by up to 59%. They allow airflow and visibility while providing an extra layer of protection in bushfire-prone areas.
Compliance and Peace of Mind
The National Construction Code requires that openings in buildings less than 3 metres from a property boundary, or within 6 metres of another building on the same allotment, be protected from fire.
By choosing Bulleen Screens, you can be confident that your screens meet these requirements, providing peace of mind and helping your home comply with Australian Standards.
