Ember guards are a specialised mesh designed to prevent burning embers from entering roof cavities and gutters, especially during bushfires. Ember guard mesh is made from fire-resistant materials, typically aluminium or stainless steel, with a fine mesh that blocks embers while still allowing water to flow through into the gutters. In bushfire-prone areas, embers can be carried by wind and settle in gutters filled with leaves or other debris, potentially igniting a fire. Gutter Guard Directs Aluminium Ember Guard mesh is certified by the CSIRO with a flammability index of "0" and meets.

Mesh Material Type

The mesh used in ember guards must be made from non-combustible materials, such as aluminum, stainless steel, or other metal alloys that won’t ignite or melt under high temperatures. Both aluminum and stainless steel meshes are common choices due to their durability and heat resistance. Our Aluminium Ember Guard mesh is certified by the CSIRO with a flammability index of "0".

Mesh Aperture Size

According to AS 3959-2018, the ember mesh must have an aperture (hole size) of no more than 2 millimeters. This ensures that embers are blocked from entering the roof space while still allowing water to flow freely into the gutters. Larger holes could allow embers to pass through, so this is a critical specification for effective ember protection.

BAL (Bushfire Attach Level Compliance)

Ember guards are tested and rated for different Bushfire Attack Levels (BAL), which indicate the level of bushfire risk in a given area. These levels range from BAL-Low to BAL-FZ (Flame Zone), with increasing protection required as the risk escalates.

Our ember guard mesh is CSIRO-certified, meeting BAL levels: BAL-12.5, BAL-19, and BAL-29, making it an ideal choice for protecting homes in most bushfire-prone zones.

Mesh Durability & Strength

To ensure long-term performance, ember guard mesh must be durable and able to withstand environmental conditions such as rain, wind, and UV exposure without degrading. Aluminum and stainless steel are both corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for long-term outdoor use in harsh Australian climates.

Gutter Guard Direct Ember Guard has two additional factors working in its favour.

1. We use a premium AkzoNobel Interpon D1010 Premium powder coating further enhancing the durability of our ember guards,

2. Our mesh stands apart with its 1mm thickness, this makes it 3 to 4x thicker & stronger than many of our competitors' offerings.

These two factors contribute to exceptional protection against wear and tear.

About the
Seller

Gutter Guard Direct is an Australian owned and operated business.

Some of the most important things to us is offering the highest quality products, and incredible customer service.

We've spent over 30 years in the home improvement industry, and we've always made a point to use the latest and highest quality technology available on the market. We want to pass those quality products on to our customers.

As you probably already know, there are many different suppliers of gutter guard / gutter protection on the market. Some of the different options you may find do more harm then good, causing even more debris to block your gutters, rather than clearing them. The system Gutter Guard Direct offers is designed to create a ski-slope effect which extends the pitch of the roof all the way to the gutter line. This allows the wind to blow off leaves that land on your gutters, keeping your gutters unblocked and leaf-free.

The aluminium mesh we provide our customers is powder coated so it will not rust or burn and Gutter Guard Direct's mesh range complies to the Australian standards of building in bushfire prone areas. It is also the best choice if you are looking for a bird proofing and vermin proofing solution as it cannot be pulled away, or chewed through like some of the other products available on the market.

Our aluminium mesh range is also compatible with the popular Colorbond roofing products, and is durable and strong.
