Fire Damper FAQs

What is Involved in Fire Damper Installation and Maintenance?

Fire Damper Installation and Maintenance is a complex process that must be carried out with precision and in accordance with fire safety regulations.

What Causes Fire Damper Activation?

Fire damper activation is triggered by heat-sensitive devices such as fusible links or thermal sensors. When the temperature in the duct reaches a specific threshold (usually 165°F or 212°F), the fusible link melts, causing the damper to close.

Can I Install A Fire Damper Myself?

Fire damper installation should be done by a certified professional familiar with local building and fire codes. Incorrect installation may render the damper ineffective and violate safety standards.

How Often Should A Fire Damper Inspection Be Carried Out?

NFPA 80 requires that fire damper inspection and test should be carried out at least every 4 years in most buildings, and every 6 years in hospitals. Regular inspections help ensure that the dampers function properly in the event of a fire.
