Fire Damper Inspections
WHY YOU MUST HAVE YOUR FIRE DAMPERS INSPECTED AND WORKING

Fire dampers are an essential life safety device installed in commercial buildings to slow the spread of smoke and fire during an emergency, but they are often overlooked because they are not easily visible. State building codes mandate the inspection and certification of dampers every four years (every six years for hospitals). This work should be completed by a professional with a fire damper inspection certification.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has published NFPA 80 and NFPA 105 standards that establish inspection/operation requirements, as well as the need for certified technicians to inspect, repair if needed, and certify that fire dampers are fully operational.
