Smoke control systems are a requirement for multi storey residential and public buildings, principally designed to protect the stairways and assist in escape using these routes in the event of a fire. The purpose of smoke and heat exhaust ventilation (SHEV) systems is to lead smoke and heat out of a burning building, whilst keeping escape corridors and stairs free of smoke for the safe escape of the buildings occupants, and to allow clearer access for fire fighters.
Building’s occupants’ safety relies on your regular maintenance of the Automatic Opening Ventilation (A.O.V.) system. This needs to be serviced and maintained at least once a year to conform to BS 7346, BS 5588 and EN 12101. It is recommended that an A.O.V. system is regularly serviced and maintained by specialised personnel on a regular basis.
A correctly installed and maintained smoke control system has the effect of increasing the escape time for the buildings’ occupants, thus potentially saving their lives.
Upon smoke being detected via a smoke detector, the AOV’s (automatic opening vents), louvres or doors via electric actuators (motors) or magnetic locks will automatically open.
We can provide you the correct solution for you smoke control needs.
