Guest ScottDar Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Hi, We have been informed we need to improve our ducting within residents bathrooms as they could spread smoke in the event of fire within a residents room. The building (care home) was built 2001 taking into account BS 5588 & 9999, it has fire dampners fitted (70c) within the ducting, ventilation shuts down upon fire alarm activition andif a phased evacutaion procedure in place. There is a large double glazed window to each room and the ducting is fire retardent (metal). Taking into account the natural vetilation within each room, window, also metal ducting i believe this improvment is not required, but thanked the consultant for his advice and made relevant personnal aware. any thoughs?
