Where Fire Resisting Ductwork Replaces Standard Ductwork
There are a number of situations where it makes sense to specify fire resisting ductwork in place of standard ductwork and fire dampers. Common scenarios where Firetrace's ductwork is specified include:
General ventilation fire resisting ductwork
- Rooms storing flammable or combustible materials with a low ignition point
- Lift shaft ventilation
- Passive air transfer ducts
In each of these cases, fire resisting ductwork gives you a passive safeguard built into the ventilation route itself, rather than relying solely on a fire damper to do that job.
