When it comes to smoke ventilation, two key terms often come up:
-
AOV (Automatic Opening Vent): These vents automatically open to release smoke and heat in the event of a fire.
-
SHEV (Smoke & Heat Exhaust Ventilation System): A system designed to control the movement of smoke and heat, improving safety and visibility in a building.
These systems play a crucial role in both natural ventilation and smoke ventilation, ensuring that windows or vents open appropriately to clear smoke when a fire is detected.
​
An AOV system is typically triggered by a smoke alarm, which identifies where the fire is located. Once activated, the system ensures that the right windows or hatches open to allow smoke to escape safely.
​
In some cases, mechanical fans may be used to draw smoke out of a building more effectively.
Having a well-designed smoke ventilation system is essential for safety, ensuring clear visibility and reducing the risk of smoke inhalation.
