Why is Fire Damper Maintenance Essential?

  • In the UK, businesses must comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which mandates that fire dampers be maintained and tested regularly to ensure they function as intended in the event of a fire

  • Fire dampers are designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through ventilation systems, which can be especially dangerous if left unchecked.

  • Whether you're a business owner, facility manager, or building landlord, ensuring the fire dampers in your property are regularly tested and maintained offers peace of mind.

  • In the event of a fire, failing to provide evidence of regular fire damper testing may jeopardise your insurance claim
