Commonly Asked Questions
What is a smoke vent?
A smoke vent is an opening in a building that allows smoke and hot air to escape during a fire, improving visibility, reducing fire spread, and protecting the building's structure. They are often required by building codes for high-rise structures and public spaces.
How are smoke vents activated?
Smoke vents automatically activate during fires using heat sensors and fusible links. When the surrounding temperature rises, the sensors trigger the vent to open, allowing smoke, heat, and fumes to escape. These mechanisms are carefully chosen to minimize false alarms and ensure swift fire response. Regular maintenance is crucial.
