5 REASONS TO FOCUS ON PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE OF YOUR SMOKE VENTS

Smoke ventilation systems are life saving systems and it is therefore essential that regular preventative maintenance is carried out to the required standards by competent personnel.

Herewith a list of reasons for a correctly functioning and maintained smoke control system:

1. Keep escape and access routes free from smoke 2. Facilitate fire fighting operations by creating a smoke free layer 3. Delay and/or prevent flashover and the subsequent development of the fire 4. Protect the contents of the building 5. Reduce the thermal effects on the structural components during a fire

A regular, diligent inspection and maintenance program is needed to ensure the units perform as designed. It is up-to building owners and facilities managers to keep their smoke ventilation in working shape.
