Ace Fire Defense Fire Escape Hood with Air Filter Wildfire Protection | Smoke Mask Hood 30 Min Filtration | Emergency Evacuation for Homes Businesses, Hotels, Children

When wildfire smoke fills the air or a sudden fire traps you inside, every breath counts, and visibility can mean the difference between escape and danger. The Ace Fire Defense Fire Escape Hood with Air Filter is your compact lifeline, developed by LA Fire CERT trainer Sherwin Ross, an NFPA member since 2021, to give you up to 30 minutes of filtered breathing time in toxic environments. Unlike basic N95 masks that only block particles or bulky full respirators that are hard to store, this single-use hood combines a lightweight, heat-resistant reflective aluminum foil design with a five-layer filtration canister that targets deadly fire contaminants like carbon monoxide, acrolein, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen cyanide, and sulfur dioxide. It's universal for adults and children, deploys in seconds with adjustable straps for a snug seal, and features a transparent window for clear vision, all while fitting easily into small plastic boxes for bedside or cabinet storage. Ideal for homes, businesses, or public spaces, it provides essential protection where oxygen levels are at least 17%, helping you navigate smoke-filled rooms to safety without the panic of limited time.

Our hood's quality comes from durable, flame-retardant materials that withstand radiant heat without melting, paired with a pleated multi-layer filter (mechanical and chemical) that captures over 99% of sub-micron particles and gases common in modern fires from synthetic materials. Key features include the quick-pull tab activation on the canister for instant use, an oversized hood that accommodates glasses, beards, or long hair, and a compact, puncture-resistant box for grab-and-go access. Benefits are clear: it buys you precious minutes to evacuate calmly, reduces inhalation risks that cause 50-80% of fire deaths, and offers peace of mind for wildfire-prone areas like California's WUI zones, where smoke lingers for days. Easy to store under a bed or near an extinguisher, it's a simple addition to your emergency kit that prioritizes family safety over complexity.

Why Choose Ace Fire Defense?

Ace Fire Defense fits perfectly because we specialize in wildfire-ready essentials that are practical for real homes, not just industrial sites, drawing from Sherwin Ross's hands-on CERT experience (completed January 2020) to address the unique threats of embers and prolonged smoke. While many escape hoods like the iEvac or Dräger PARAT focus on 15-30 minutes of basic filtration but lack family-friendly sizing or easy storage, ours extends to universal adult/child fit with a transparent visor for better visibility in low-light evacuations, plus our free wildfire prep guides to integrate it into your plan. In 2025's escalating fire seasons, where smoke inhalation kills faster than flames, this means more time for your loved ones to reach safety without bulky gear or high costs. We skip the overkill of CBRN-rated hoods for everyday threats, offering certified reliability at an accessible price, backed by community support and hassle-free returns. Why risk incomplete protection when Ace delivers targeted, trustworthy defense tailored for your life?
