    Why Most Homes Burn During Wildfires

    Embers Are the #1 Cause of Home Ignitions

    Many people think that the main fire front is the leading cause of home ignition, but 80-90% of all wildfire structure ignitions are actually caused by flying embers.

    These wind-blown embers can travel over a mile ahead of the fire, landing on roofs, in gutters, and finding their way into vents and other openings.

    Even with defensible space, flying embers remain the greatest risk because they can bypass all traditional fire protection measures and ignite your home from the inside out. FireFoil Wildfire Shields are designed to stop embers cold.

    How Embers Ignite Homes

    Watch how flying embers can bypass all defensible space and ignite a structure from multiple access points.

    Radiant Heat Pre-Heating

    Radiant Heat Creates Perfect Ignition Conditions

    Intense radiant heat from wildfires pre-heats combustible materials on and around your home to near their ignition temperature.

    This radiant heat dries out wood siding, decking, vegetation, and other materials, creating tinder-dry conditions that make ignition almost inevitable when embers or burning debris make contact.

    In some cases, radiant heat alone can ignite a home's combustible materials without any direct flame contact, causing spontaneous ignition when materials reach their auto-ignition temperature.

    FireFoil's reflective aluminum surface blocks up to 95% of radiant heat, keeping your home's surfaces cool and preventing this dangerous pre-heating process that makes structures so vulnerable to ignition.

    FireFoil: A Critical Layer of Wildfire Defense

    FireFoil is excellent at reflecting radiant heat and stopping flying embers. It's an essential component of a comprehensive wildfire defense strategy, designed to work alongside other critical home hardening techniques like defensible space, fire sprinklers and fire-resistant building materials.

    Aluminum Structure Wrap in Action

    Watch how aluminum structure wrap protects a cabin during a controlled test burn, demonstrating real-world fire protection capabilities.

    Stops flying embers cold

    Prevents ember-based ignition in common vulnerable areas: window sills, vents, gutters, doors and more.

    Reflects 95+% of radiant heat

    Advanced materials redirect dangerous thermal energy away from your home's structure.

    Deploy in as little as 30 min

    FireFoil shields can be deployed in many ways, from a base perimeter wrap to a complete home wrap, depending on your home's size, level of defense, and your time to evacuate.

    Trusted technology used successfully by professionals for decades.

    FireFoil Wildfire Shields

    You can think of a FireFoil Wildfire Shield as a massive, flexible blanket that protects your home against wildfire threats. Rolled out in sheets between 5 and 20 feet wide and up to 300 feet long, FireFoil can be cut and shaped to fit whatever part of your home needs protection.

    • Proven in the field: This technology has been used successfully by wildland firefighters for decades.
    • Versatile deployment:
    Homeowners with hardened homes — Class A roofs, fire-resistant exteriors, and double-pane windows — may choose to only cover vulnerable areas such as wooden decks, eaves, windows, and exterior doors.
    Homeowners with less hardened homes may choose to scale up and wrap the entire home for maximum protection.
    • Anchored to your home: Shields can be secured using different techniques depending on construction materials. Most homeowners staple them to siding, use strapping and in extreme locations use wire mesh. Every home is unique, and our team is available for consultation on the best approach.
    • Reusable & portable: Shields can be deployed, removed, stored, and reused season after season.

    Cabin Saved with Help from FireFoil

    "I felt helpless...and a sense of peace at the same time having the [FireFoil] on."

    In a community of 70 landowners, their cabin was one of only five left standing.
