Python

Our product Python has undergone all of the testing requirements to become a Miami-Dade certified product and is in the process of becoming Miami-Dade Approved.™ These Tests include a Wind Driven Rain test, TAS100 (A), in which Python passed with no leakage. The following small scale fire tests were conducted on Python and met requirements for a Dade approved product; ASTM D 2843 Smoke Density, ASTM D 1929 Self Ignition Temperature, ASTM D 635 Rate of Burn.

Python ridge vent is also in the process of becoming an ICC (International Code Council) certified product. ICC requires that products undergo the same tests for product certification as Dade, but is also reviewed by codes of BOCA (Building Department Operations Audit), ICBO (International Conference of Building Officials), and SBCCI (Southern Building Code Congress International).
