About AOV Testing and Certification

Is your building due AOV testing and certification before audit, sale or insurer review? iComply test automatic opening vent and smoke control systems across Greater Manchester and the North West, producing clear service certificates and actuator test records. Regular testing proves vents open fully, panels supervise faults, and battery standby supports life-safety operation when mains fails.

AOV testing typically includes visual inspection, powered open/close cycles, timing and free movement checks, manual control verification, fire input simulation where safe, battery voltage and charge assessment, and fault lamp or monitoring confirmation. Defects are listed with priority so responsible persons can plan remediations. We test natural AOVs, many mechanical smoke systems’ control interfaces, and related lobby or stair arrangements as scoped. After corrective works we retest and update records. Multi-site landlords benefit from standardised certificates and annual calendars. Operating from Stockport, iComply covers apartment blocks, high-rise residential and commercial assets region-wide with fixed pricing once system size is known.

  • ●Annual or scheduled AOV functional testing to documented methods
  • ●Battery, panel supervision and manual control verification
  • ●Defect schedules and retest after remedial works
  • ●Portfolio certification programmes for multi-block landlords

AOV Testing and Certification FAQ

How often should AOVs be tested?+

Life-safety smoke control systems should be inspected and tested at intervals defined by your fire risk assessment, manufacturer guidance and best practice—commonly at least annually, with more frequent checks on critical assets.

What if vents fail to open during the test?+

We record the failure, isolate risk advice for the responsible person, and quote for actuator, vent or panel repairs, then retest once remediated.

Do you provide certificates insurers accept?+

We issue service certificates and test records detailing what was checked. Always share your insurer’s specific wording if they have extra requirements.
