INSTALLATION OF FIRE SMOKE DAMPER


First and foremost, dampers must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s
installation instructions and in accordance with their listing.
 
Access to both fire and smoke dampers is required for inspection, testing, and
maintenance. Smoke and combination fire and smoke dampers in new construction
must be provided with an approved means of access large enough to allow inspection
and maintenance of the damper and its operating parts.  Access cannot affect the
integrity, continuity, or rating of the assembly where its located and must also comply
with any access requirements in the mechanical code. Access points must also be
provided with permanent identification indicating the type of damper (fire damper,
smoke damper, fire/smoke damper). In some situations, where space constraints or
physical barriers in new construction restrict access to a damper for periodic inspection
and testing, the damper is required to be a single- or multi-blade-type damper
and must comply with remote inspection requirements.
 
After a damper has been installed, an operational test much be completed. This
test ensures that the damper has been installed correctly within the air distribution
system, is fully functional, closes completely without obstructions and contains all the
correct components and devices as part of its assembly. The operational test may be
required be conducted under normal HVAC airflow and non-airflow conditions. The
damper shall fully close under both test conditions.
