California’s current wildfire vent listing includes Model MGV louver vents in both sizes, 12 × 6 and 12 × 8 inches.
CAL FIRE’s live Building Materials Listing includes Able Sheet Metal’s 5420-1206-MGV, measuring 12 × 6 inches, and 5420-1208-MGV, measuring 12 × 8 inches. They appear under listing 8165-2363:0003 in category 8165, which covers vents for the wildland-urban interface. The listing status was confirmed live on August 25, 2026, and shows an expiration date of June 30, 2027.
That answers the listing question, but it does not supply every specification detail. The live description names no test protocol, so the listing alone does not identify the testing method behind acceptance. Before specifying either vent, confirm the test standard and exact model number on GOVmotus, especially if approval depends on a particular size, installation method, or project requirement. The practical conclusion is narrow but clear: these two models are listed now, under the stated listing number, through the stated expiration date.

UNRESOLVED MEMBER, and it is the reason no dimension from this document is carried onto this record. Page 10's table names 5320-MGV16, 5340-MGV16 and 5360-MGV16 — three of this record's thirteen models — and dimensions the section at 2 inches deep. The other ten models (the 5420- and 5405- and 5410- series) appear only in the page 5 product list, which prints a face size and a net free area and no depth. Page 6 separately gives the eave / soffit / foundation family 1 inch of depth, so Able demonstrably builds the MGV at more than one depth and the ten undrawn models cannot inherit the 2 inches by assumption.
