Fire damper inspection in Yaverland

Leave it or put it right?

Until a damper has been dropped, you can’t say whether it works. A test gives you a clear answer, and we can offer remedials for any that fail, and that’s something you can plan around. A planned visit to Yaverland is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

What fire damper testing looks like in Yaverland

Yaverland is within about 1 mile of the coast. Dampers close to louvres and air intakes can corrode in sea air, and a corroded blade may not drop. The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 7 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 24 hotels and B&Bs with registered kitchens or food service across Yaverland and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Buildings like these often have ducted ventilation, and wherever a duct crosses a fire-resisting wall or floor there should be a damper, tested at least once a year. Yaverland is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic buildings, and that covers fire safety systems such as dampers.

If you manage a care home or clinic near Yaverland, the testing that a hospital like Arthur Webster Memorial Hospital for Children (about 2.8 miles south-west) relies on applies to your dampers too. School buildings such as The Bay Church of England School are normally tested in the holidays, wherever they have dampers. If you manage an older building converted to a hotel or venue, like many historic houses in the area (Yaverland Manor is about 0.5 miles north), finding every damper is the first job.
