Smoke ventilation systems play a critical role in limiting the spread of smoke during a fire. By clearing smoke and hot gases from affected areas, these systems improve visibility for occupants who need to evacuate and create safer conditions for fire service personnel. Compliance with the latest regulations and industry standards helps ensure the highest level of protection for both people and property.

Why Smoke Ventilation Matters

• Enhanced Safety
  Proper ventilation can reduce smoke density, allowing individuals to find exits more easily. This supports faster evacuations and reduces the risk of smoke inhalation.

• Protection of Assets
  By channelling smoke away from key areas, buildings and their contents are subjected to less damage.

• Compliance and Peace of Mind
  Regulatory requirements evolve over time, often outlined in standards such as BS EN 12101 and building regulations like Approved Document B. Maintaining an up-to-date system demonstrates a commitment to safety and keeps premises compliant.
