Fire Damper Testing Tunbridge Wells

Fire Damper Testing Contractors in Tunbridge Wells

Fire dampers are installed inside a commercial building’s ductwork system. The damper’s vents are designed to close when the heat from a fire breaks the fuse, preventing the spread of fire and smoke throughout a building. Our fire damper testing in Tunbridge Wells ensures that your fire dampers are working well.

The Law on Fire Dampers in the UK

The Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order 2005 states that a building owner is responsible for taking general fire safety precautions to ensure the safety of the building and the people within it. According to Section 17 of this safety order, systems that minimise the risk of fire are subject to proper maintenance and are tested to ensure good working order.

British Standard 9999 clearly states that all fire dampers in a commercial building should be tested at constant intervals not exceeding 2 years. The standard also states that spring-operated dampers should be tested every 12 months or more frequently if placed in a dirt-laden environment.
