The first step in fire damper remedial work is a comprehensive assessment and inspection of the entire fire damper system. Trained professionals typically conduct visual inspections and functional testing to identify any deficiencies or non-compliance issues.
Detailed documentation of findings is essential for developing an effective remediation plan. This documentation includes the location of each damper, its condition, any defects found, and recommendations for remedial action.
Based on the inspection findings, a remediation plan is developed outlining the specific actions required to address identified deficiencies. This plan should include a prioritised list of tasks, estimated timelines, and cost estimates.
Remedial work may involve various repairs or replacements to bring the fire damper system into compliance.
Repairing or replacing damaged or malfunctioning dampers.
Cleaning and lubricating damper components.
Upgrading obsolete or non-compliant dampers to meet current standards.
Sealing gaps and penetrations around dampers to maintain fire resistance ratings.
Following repairs and replacements, thorough testing and certification of the fire damper system are conducted to ensure proper functionality and compliance with regulatory requirements. Testing may involve both visual inspection and functional testing of each damper.
Comprehensive documentation of all remedial work performed, including test results and certifications, is crucial for regulatory compliance and future reference. This documentation should be retained for record-keeping purposes and provided to relevant authorities as necessary.
Once remedial work is completed, ongoing maintenance and monitoring of the fire damper system are essential to ensure continued compliance and optimal performance. Regular inspections, testing, and maintenance activities should be scheduled according to manufacturer recommendations and regulatory requirements.
A huge thank you to the staff at CleanAir UK who have done the most fantastic job cleaning our kitchen this year. They were prompt, polite, helpful, friendly and amazingly efficient. The kitchen is sparkling and we are thrilled with the results. We will definitely be asking them back next year…
Have used Cleanair before to do our kitchen deep clean and were very impressed with their work so asked them to replace our duct for the kitchen extraction. Arrived on time, done the work quickly and efficiently which allowed our kitchen team to carry on with their prep work. I highly recommend them.
Looking for companies for the cleaning and servicing of my kitchen canopy and ducts I found, via Google, overpriced local traders. I am so glad I looked on the BESA website and came across Clean Air Ltd. The lads you sent round were polite and did a good job. I was so confident in your pricing and work I recommended Clean Air to my church for their kitchen work. God Bless you all.
We got VIP treatment as a local business – all queries were answered professionally and the work itself was fast and clean – no mess left on site. A refreshing attitude! Thanks to the team!
