About Natural Smoke Ventilation
Natural smoke ventilation uses wind and buoyancy through AOVs, roof vents and façade openings rather than large mechanical fans — a common approach for residential stair cores. Icomply design-support, install and maintain natural smoke ventilation systems across Stockport and the North West, ensuring vents open reliably to the free areas your design requires.
Success depends on correctly sized openings, reliable actuators, clear airflow paths and disciplined maintenance. We fit roof and window vents, louvre banks, controls and battery systems, then commission open/close performance under real conditions. Existing natural systems that stick shut or leak weather are surveyed for repair or upgrade. Landlords appreciate plain-English reports that explain why a seized vent is a life-safety issue, not a cosmetic defect.
