Parking Garages - Pollution Control and Smoke Control - Part 3
Car Park mechanical ventilation systems can be broadly defined into three types: Pollution Only; Smoke Clearance or Purging; and Smoke Control. In this article we look at the characteristics of each type of installation, and how in each case a Jet Thrust System provides a more effective solution than a traditional Ducted System.

Parking Garages - Understanding The Need For Ventilation - Part 1
Whether for simple pollution control, smoke clearance or purging, or complete smoke control, almost every car park needs ventilation. Understanding why – and the different purposes ventilation can fulfil – is key to designing and specifying the right system for each car park.

Parking Garages - The Advantages Of A Thrust Fan System - Part 2
While traditional ducted ventilation systems are relatively simple to design and install, they have some inherent disadvantages. A Ductless Jet Thrust System can provide much better and more effective airflow, can be made reversible to aid smoke control, and is less likely to reduce vehicle clearance height or car park capacity.

Fire Safety - In Buildings, Fire Classes and Fire Detection Methods - Part 1
Fire safety in buildings is about protecting people, but also limiting economic losses and damage to the building. Preventing the spread of fire through material and fire dampers is key to this, and early detection of not just temperature rise, but smoke, is crucial to doing this effectively.
