Tenmat’s Fire Rated Air Valves offer a unique and cost-effective solution for ensuring fire safety in buildings with recessed ceiling air valves. Designed to expand rapidly in the event of a fire, these valves help maintain the fire resistance rating of the ceiling, thereby limiting the spread of fire and heat throughout the building. Available in all common sizes for both Extract and Supply versions, they are suitable for a variety of building types including domestic homes, apartments, and hotels.



Applications

The Fire Rated Air Valves are ideal for use in buildings where fire ratings are crucial. They provide up to 60 minutes of fire resistance in solid timber joist floor/ceiling constructions and 30 minutes in I-beam and metal web joist floor/ceiling constructions. These valves are installed as normal air valves and do not require any additional maintenance beyond standard cleaning.

Question: 

Hi Tenmat Firefly ventilation valve. Can you please confirm that the stated dimension 100, 125 etc refers to the diameter of ducting that it fits - not the outside diameter of the device? Thank you

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:

Yes the listed size is the diameter of the extract and supply pipework, not the total diameter of the item.
