BAL-FZ Compliance

Our BAL-40 stainless steel vents are compliant with BAL-FZ when installed correctly in accordance with the BAL-FZ standards.

Click Here to download the construction requirements for BAL-FZ under Standards Australia AS3529:2018.

The relevant sections are:

  • 9.4.3
  • 9.6.1
  • 9.6.5
  • 9.6.6

The essential requirement for compliance is found in 9.6.5. To be compliant a sealant must be used when installing the vents to prevent gaps. The sealant used "shall be sealed with mineral fibre at the roof to prevent gaps. The material used to seal the penetration shall be non-combustible."

Airflow Through Bushfire Mesh

These vents include removable cinder mesh inserts with 2mm openings.

To be BAL-40 compliant, this cinder mesh insert must be installed. Please note that some pressure loss will occur from the added resistance caused by the cinder mesh, which may cause a reduction in airflow. We recommend a high quality centrifugal fan with a strong pressure curve, such as our AC and EC motor centrifugal fans, to minimise this pressure loss.

If you are not in a bush fire prone area, this cinder mesh can be removed, which will increase the airflow through the vent.

Ventilation Design - Good Service & Great Delivery

Review

My experience with Fresh Ventilation was extremely easy.
I have an upstairs bathroom + downstairs laundry & bathroom, I gave them a diagram of the layout & they worked out what In-Line Fans & associated gear I needed & advised how we should install it.
I placed the order on Wednesday & told them I really wanted to install on the weekend the next day the gear arrived.
I have 2 lower level fans going through a splitter to the external SS vent with the laundry run being about 8m and bathroom at about 5m, when either of the fans are on there is a solid amount of air flow coming out the vent.
I believe the money we spent provides a real ventilation solution, I think our days of cleaning mould off the laundry ceiling during clothes dryer season are all gone.
A big thankyou to the Fresh Ventilation team.

Delivery of 4 'Hooded Circular Stainless Steel vents'

Very happy, the goods arrived about 5 working days after the order was placed.
Arrived in southern suburbs of Adelaide on our front door.
Thank you

Fast shipping quality products 👍

Nice quality fan and vent cover, but after installation I discovered that the stainless steel flaps on the particular vent I purchased, restricted airflow. As my vent is not in sight or affected by bushfire risk, I simply removed the flaps. The mesh still prevents bugs from entering.
