the fire is reddish orange from photos, so the temperature should be around 1000 degrees celsius

you will be safe with borosilicate glass. this is used in research institutes and in space shuttle exterior claddings. autoclavable and melts at 1700 degrees Celsius

remove windows, install concrete wall

see the concrete wall from the fire , even the reddish orange firehave no effect on the concrete wall

[savoirex]

the thick smoke oso can kill, not just the heat...

 

[Jacknjill]

If you are trapped in the unit above, you will be boiled like a frog or smoked like a turkey?

 

[timsum]

replace all glass with 2hr rated fire board

 

[hotamp]

rather serious fire, dunno if any windows can withstand that kind temperature, even if there are cost wont be cheap and also the weight dunno can installed on to existing hdb structure or not.

Keep the fire insai, kym?

 

[slashGNR]

Keep it simple, the best for the house, anything happens, not so "heart pain"...touch wood...

 

[hongge]

Even if the fireproof glass can withstand the heat, the frame holding the glass may not and may melt under the heat.

 

[standarture]

Glass is technically not fire rated. Must be reinforced with wall and thick. And need to be cooled.

If cannot keep the fire or smoke out

What can I do to minimise damage in the house?

 

[matrix05]

Need to see the aftermath photo. Above and below windows and frame all melted.

seriously, you can try to buy a few of this and place it in location you feel are a high risk area that on 24/7 like extension plug that is on 24/7, your fridge, router, battery storage area, ** box etc....
