All but the smallest buildings are required to include life safety dampers to ensure that fire and smoke cannot travel through ductwork and spread to other areas of the building. Life safety dampers are very different from the dampers used for HVAC control. This session will help engineers and installers understand the differences between fire-, smoke-, combination fire/smoke-, and ceiling radiation dampers; the applications for which each is suited; and how to specify these dampers correctly. It also describes different ways that each of these dampers are activated and/or controlled. Installation, testing, and inspection methods and requirements are discussed.
