Paperwork is a visit record
You get a note of which vents moved, battery condition and what failed. That is not a BAFE certificate, a fire-risk assessment or building-control completion. Failed devices stay failed on the sheet.
Manual control at the landing
Residents and the fire service use the manual point, often at stair level, not the panel in a locked riser. We operate that switch as well as the panel output. A vent that only moves from the engineer’s laptop is not commissioned.
Automatic opening vents are life-safety smoke control, so this sits with fire protection and is quoted across the UK. Population figures are the published resident counts named above. They are not a survey of vents in Romiley.
