Heat and smoke vent

Fire and smoke pose a major threat to life and health in the event of a fire. Contrary to popular belief, it is not the fire or heat, but the toxic smoke that is responsible for more than 90% of all deaths related to fire. It is also the development of smoke that causes the greatest material damage and financial loss in connection with fire.

This is how a smoke ventilation system works

A smoke ventilation system is equipped with a motor that is controlled by a control unit with smoke sensor and alarm. Overall, the system ensures that heat and smoke are led away and sent out of the skylight in case of fire. The system is mounted where required, such as in public buildings, residential buildings, stairs, common access roads, hotels, and the like.

The illustration below shows how the smoke ventilation system works.
