Education Fire Damper Inspections
Kitchen extract cleaning
Education organisations are required by both 'Fire Safety Regulations' and 'Workplace regulations' to prevent against fires. They are responsible for ensuring that extract systems in their kitchens are cleaned on a regular basis to help prevent against fires. It is a condition of building insurance policies to ensure they are kept clean.
Fire damper inspection
Fire damper maintenance and testing is vital. Fire dampers are designed to stop the spread of fire through ducts, walls, floors and ceilings.
This is why it is imperative they work.
Fire dampers can slow down the spread of fire meaning you will have longer to evacuate anyone from the building.

Ventilation ductwork cleaning
All ventilation ductwork must be cleaned frequently to ensure that you comply with TR19. Different parts of the building may have different 'ratings' which will determine how often they need to be cleaned. For example, the ventilation ductwork from a science lab will have a different rating to the ventilation in a normal classroom.
For more information on the different classifications please visit our
legislation and regulations page.
