Automatic Opening Vents (AOV)

Advanced automated smoke and heat control systems designed to protect lives and property during fire emergencies.

Automatic Opening Vents System

Life-Saving Smoke Control Technology

Automatic Opening Vents (AOV) are critical components of building safety systems that automatically open when smoke or heat is detected, allowing harmful gases to escape and providing clear evacuation routes for occupants.

Our AOV systems comply with BS EN 12101-2 standards and are designed to operate reliably when needed most, providing natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilation.

System Features

  • Automatic smoke and heat detection activation
  • Battery backup for power failures
