Over the last three years, Aico has worked closely with Flagship Housing to develop a robust, standards-led fire detection strategy that addresses the specific safety challenges posed by modern ventilation systems. While Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) and Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems are essential for improving indoor air quality, their ductwork can create potential pathways for smoke movement; the collaboration focused on ensuring detection coverage meets the full intent of BS 5839-6.
