Rich and April, retired fire marshals and former firefighters, discuss the importance of installing ember-resistant vents to protect homes from wildfire damage. They explain that 90% of structures lost in a wildfire are due to embers, which can travel for miles and start smaller fires that eventually take out a property. Ember-resistant vents capture these embers and prevent them from entering a home's attic, foundation, or walls. They also address the question of covering up vents, stating that a home is designed as a system and ventilation through the foundation and attic is necessary to prevent mold, moisture build-up, and other problems.

Ember-resistant vents are an important tool for protecting homes from wildfire damage. These vents capture embers, which are responsible for 90% of structures lost in a wildfire, and prevent them from entering a home's attic, foundation, or walls. Covering up vents is not recommended as it can lead to moisture build-up and mold inside a home.
