Smoke Control in High Rise Buildings
March 2, 2018
A fire in any building can be cause for alarm. Smoke and flames pose dangers to the people inside, while at the same time causing thousands of dollars to damage to the building itself in just minutes. High rise buildings in particular have very special needs when it comes to smoke and fire control.

That’s why smoke control in high rise buildings is so important, and why simply having fire extinguishing equipment on site is not enough.
