Initial Brief

As providers of tested and certified smoke ventilation equipment, Sertus were approached to deliver the smoke ventilation package at Lily's Walk.

Challenges

Initially, the scope of the project had window motors fitted to PVC windows to provide automatic opening vents. However, as there are a number of significant practical and compliance issues with this method of ventilation, Sertus worked closely with the architect and main contractor to propose an alternative solution.

Outcome

As a result, the design of the building was changed to suit the Sertus Facade Single Leaf Product which is tested and certified to BS EN 12101-2. The residents of this flagship development can be fully confident that the smoke ventilation system installed meets all the necessary compliance criteria.
