KABO GROUP reviews the available information, prepares an agreed technical scope and completes the work with the defined documentation.

Open section↗Fan duties, damper sizes and duct configuration are calculated for leakage, door conditions, replacement air, fire compartments and evacuation strategy.
We coordinate power resilience, fire-resistant circuits, manual controls, status supervision and interlocks for the required operating period.
Testing follows the complete sequence from fire detection to dampers, fans, ventilation shutdowns and status indication at the control point.
This list explains the regulatory basis but is not a substitute for a project or a complete schedule for every building. Document status, amendments and building-specific requirements are verified when the project starts.
Sets general fire-safety, fire-resistance, evacuation, compartmentation and engineering requirements.
Open source↗Building regulationCovers design and installation of fire-protection systems, their scope, interfaces and principal requirements.
Open source↗Technical standardsApplicable parts cover fans, dampers, ducts, pressure differential systems, power supplies and test methods.
Open source↗Mandatory rulesSets organisational and operational duties, including system readiness and measures during isolation or repair.
Open source↗We review layouts, compartmentation, escape routes, smoke zones, fire strategy and available mechanical information.
We define smoke extraction and pressure differential duties, equipment, ducts, dampers, controls and power requirements.
We install the agreed mechanical, electrical and control elements and coordinate their interfaces.
We verify alarm initiation, damper positions, fan operation, status indication, standby power and the complete cause-and-effect.
The project may include smoke shafts and ducts, extract fans, pressure differential systems, dampers, control panels, fire-resistant circuits and fire alarm interfaces.
Extraction removes smoke from defined zones; pressurisation creates a pressure difference to reduce smoke entry into stairs, lobbies or lift shafts.
Building size, smoke zones, airflow duties, fans, ducts, dampers, controls, fire-resistant power and access conditions.
We verify initiation, equipment states, status feedback, standby supplies and the full approved operating sequence.
The building type, city, approximate area and required system are enough to begin.
