Fire dampers are passive fire protection products installed in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) ducts. They significantly prevent the spread of fire inside the ductwork through fire-resistance rated walls and floors. They slow the progression of fire allowing people sufficient time to evacuate a building safely during a building fire.
As with any safety apparatus, these need to be regularly tested and maintained in order to ensure that if and when the time comes, they will work and do their job effectively. For more information on how often they should be tested read of blog – How often should fire dampers be tested?

BS 9999:2017 states that arrangements should be made for all fire dampers to be tested at regular intervals by a competent person on completion of the installation and at least annually, and to be repaired or replaced immediately if found faulty. Spring operated fire dampers should be tested annually and fire dampers situated in dust laden and similar atmospheres should be tested much more frequently at periods suited to the degree of pollution
