Yep, using Class-A roofing and a 0–5 foot fire-resistant zone around houses in California and Oregon really cuts down on wildfire insurance claims.

Data from insurers and state programs in CA and OR show that homes with Class-A roofs plus a 0–5 ft non combustible zone have noticeably lower wildfire losses and insurance claims, leading to premium discounts and easier coverage in high-risk neighborhoods.
