^^ I get more worried about arsenic green to be honest.. (this is only internet it is a hazard) but the masks would be vapour (gasses) filter A and that point for lead to turn to gas vapour is 500ºc.. other limiting precautions can be added (a fan and air flow)
Edit (I think that temperature is wrong, but then I really wouldn't suggest burning off inside, all the paint situations will be different and may need a variety of techniques)
Things that gave lead a bad name; flake white make-up, water pipes, children's toys. Chances are there is some on your roof that was manually installed. Don't get me wrong I've had a coroner report of a painter read to me it included lead paint and asbestos
