When choosing materials for your home, especially in areas prone to wildfires, fire resistance is a critical factor. Tex•Cote Coolwall, renowned for its energy-efficient properties, offers an added layer of safety as it is a Class A fire-rated coating. This top-tier rating highlights its ability to withstand and resist the spread of flames, making it an excellent choice for homeowners in high-risk fire zones.
Understanding Class A Fire Rating
A Class A fire rating is the highest fire-resistance standard for building materials. It signifies that a product has undergone rigorous testing to evaluate its flame spread and smoke development. Materials with a Class A rating demonstrate superior performance in limiting flame spread to 0-25 feet, the lowest range on the scale.
Tex•Cote Coolwall’s Class A fire rating ensures that it offers a dependable barrier against fire spread, providing homeowners with peace of mind. It’s not just about energy efficiency or aesthetic appeal—Tex•Cote Coolwall prioritizes safety as well.
