To determine your home?s BAL rating and any special requirements for building in your area, consult your local council, government or local fire authority.<\/p>\n

Safety must always come first, so with this in mind once you have your BAL rating, you can rely on Wilkins Windows to deliver your choice of windows and doors without comprising your design.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

          The standard AS3959 outlines different construction practises and building materials for five bushfire hazard levels. These are known as BALs (Bushfire Attack Levels).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
          BAL 12.5<\/td>\nLow<\/td>\nConcern of Ember Attack<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          BAL 19<\/td>\nModerate<\/td>\nIncreased level of ember attack & burning debris, radiant heat up to 19kwm squared<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          BAL 29<\/td>\nHigh<\/td>\nGreater risk from airborne burning debris, further risk from radiant heat exposure up to 29kwm squared<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          BAL 40<\/td>\nVery High<\/td>\nBurning debris ignited by windborne embers & radiant heat exposure up to 40kwm squared<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          BAL FZ<\/td>\nFlame Zone<\/td>\nDirect flame contact from fire front & radiant heat exposure greater than 40kwm squared<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

          Wilkins Windows can supply Windows & Doors up to BAL 29 in Timber and BAL 40 in UPVC.<\/p>\n
