Finding fire rated paint

Bear in mind that the two primary factors in protecting your home from fire are your choice in roofing material and maintaining a defensible zone. Fire rated paint is also vital to protecting the interior of your home. Perforated horizontal pipes can be provided on each side of and running parallel to the ridges of your roof, controlled by stop taps at ground level. The pipes can be composed of galvanized steel or copper, and perforated with holes at sufficient intervals along the length of the pipe to discharge water over the surface of your roof in the event of a fire.
