Case Study: Flat Glass AOV, London

FLAT GLASS AOV ROOF HATCH

For this high-end flat conversion project in London we specified one of our EN12101-2 tested flat glass roof vents to provide a better-quality finish to the project.

This AOV roof hatch was required for the top of the stairwell, where you commonly need to achieve a 1mtr square free vent area to clear the smoke from the escape route.

The roof vent installed is 1.4mtr x 1mtr vent with a toughened flat glass lid that will open to 140 degrees in the event of a fire. Finished in white

This roof vent includes 6mm toughened low ‘E’ Glass which improves the heat loss during the winter and helps to reduce the heat build-up in the summer.

SMOKE VENTILATION EQUIPMENT SUPPLIED:

1x Flat Glass AOV Roof Hatch – 1m2 Free Vent Area
1 x Single Zone 10amp Stairwell AOV Control Panel (Including Battery Backup)
1 x FiremanÂ’s Override Switch
This system is connected to the communal fire alarm panel, which will activate in the event of a fire. The firemanÂ’s override switch provides full manual control of the vent at the ground floor entrance as required by the fire brigade on entry.
