About Automatic Opening Vent

An automatic opening vent (AOV) is a smoke vent or window that opens on fire detection or manual control to help clear smoke from escape routes. iComply supply, install and maintain automatic opening vents — roof hatches, casement windows and louvre banks — for residential and commercial properties across Greater Manchester and the North West, with full electrical control and certification.

Correct free area, weather performance and reliable actuation matter as much as the vent itself. We match vent type to the architectural opening, fit actuators with appropriate force and stroke, connect to the AOV panel and prove operation under backup power. Retrofit projects on occupied blocks are planned carefully for access equipment and resident communication. After install, planned maintenance keeps hinges, seals and motors serviceable through seasonal weather.

Automatic Opening Vent FAQ

Are automatic opening vents the same as smoke vents?+

AOVs are a common form of automatic smoke vent used in escape-route smoke control; exact product choice depends on design free area and location.

Can an existing window become an AOV?+

Sometimes, if the frame, free area and actuator mounting are suitable — we assess case by case rather than forcing a retrofit.

Who can operate the vent manually?+

Manual break-glass or key switches are usually provided for firefighters and trained staff, tested during commissioning and service.
