Lift Shaft Smoke Extraction

Lift Shaft Smoke Extraction - Consultation, Installation & Maintenance

In the event of a fire, the lift shaft smoke extraction system directs smoke in a targeted manner via the roof out of the lift shaft. This keeps escape and rescue routes clear and minimizes the spread of smoke to other areas of the building.

Saving energy with modern shaft smoke extraction systems

In the past, permanent openings were usually installed at the top of the shaft, resulting in a high loss of the building's thermal energy. Lift shaft smoke extraction systems are installed primarily in buildings where both energy efficiency and safety are highly valued. These include high-rise buildings, office buildings, shopping centers as well as hotels.

How a lift shaft smoke extraction system works

Lift shaft smoke extraction can be activated either automatically via smoke detectors or manually via an emergency release button. The lift shaft smoke extraction control unit has an emergency power supply. It opens the smoke vent at the top of the shaft. The goal is to keep the lift shaft free of smoke.
