Smoke vents are designed to open automatically to provide
emergency smoke and heat ventilation. Prompt venting in case of
fire is essential for the safe evacuation of occupants and for
effective fire-fighting conditions within a building. The smoke vent
is not intended for use as general-purpose building ventilation
devices. International Building Code requires smoke venting in a
variety of applications including Factory and Storage Facilities,
Stages and Platforms. The following are general instructions for
installing, operating, and maintaining smoke vent products. These
are recommended general guidelines only. Locally accepted
roofing and sealing practices and procedures should be followed
to ensure the ultimate weather-ability of vents installed into
various types of roofing systems.
Improper selection, installation, or use can cause personal injury or property damage. It
