Standards and regulations

Smoke control components are covered by the BS EN 12101 series (for example EN 12101-2 for natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilators, EN 12101-3 for powered fans, EN 12101-6 for pressure differential systems, EN 12101-8 for smoke dampers, EN 12101-9 for control panels and EN 12101-10 for power supplies). Design follows Approved Document B (England), BS 9991 (residential) or BS 9999 (other buildings), with Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish equivalents. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 the responsible person must keep systems maintained.

Installation considerations

We check roof pitch and covering, the kerb or upstand, opening angle and access.

Every installation starts with a free survey. We confirm the specification, give you a written quote, install and commission the system, and hand over with test records and instructions.
