Fire-damper roadshow goes on tour in UK

Flakt Woods, fire damper

Visitors to the Flakt Woods mobile smoke roadshow at several venues in the UK were given a live demonstration of the capabilities of the latest range of CE-marked smoke and fire dampers in commercial and residential applications. The demonstration showed the capabilities of circular fire dampers used as closing devices for preventing the spread of fire in ventilation ducts between compartments.

Managing director Allan Hurdle said, ‘Having the opportunity to show visitors a live demonstration has really helped stress the importance and effectiveness of fire dampers in real-life situations. It was great to have so many building-services engineers and Members of Parliament [when the roadshow visited the QEII Conference Centre in London], and we’re sure they found it to be a valuable and interesting experience.’
