Fire dampers: installation, inspection, and maintenance

Automatic fire dampers in your ventilation system prevent fire and smoke from spreading through the ducts.

Certified in accordance with
VCA-certified ISO 9001 Kiwa K21050
Trusted by, among others, DNB · WTC Amsterdam · Cooltower · ASML

Ventilation ducts run straight through fire compartments and, without measures, form a direct route for fire and smoke. Fire dampers automatically close off this route as soon as needed.

Our fire dampers close automatically when the temperature rises in the duct, via a fusible link or thermal mechanism, and are expertly installed and sealed around the perimeter.

What you can expect

  • Automatic closure when temperature rises in the duct
  • Certified installation and sealing around the damper
  • Fits into existing and new ventilation systems
  • Included in the maintenance logbook for periodic inspection

Costs

What do fire dampers cost?

For fire dampers, the price is determined by the quantity, duct dimensions, installation situation (new duct or retrofit), accessibility above ceilings, and the required perimeter sealing. We offer periodic testing and maintenance as a standalone visit or within a maintenance contract, with the price per damper decreasing as the number increases.

Common mistakes

  • Installing the damper without the prescribed perimeter seal, so the fire separation still leaks.
  • Skipping periodic function tests, allowing a jammed mechanism to go unnoticed.
  • Boarding up dampers after a renovation or making them inaccessible for inspection.
