Ember & Vent Inventory Worksheet

Vents are an easy-to-overlook ember-entry point. Walk your home and log every vent below, then fill in the mesh size and condition by hand or print this sheet.

Ember-resistant mesh (commonly 1/8 inch or smaller) is frequently recommended over standard 1/4-inch mesh screening, since embers can pass through larger openings. Confirm your local building or fire code's exact requirement; it varies by jurisdiction.
