encompassing Routine Maintenance, Testing & Inspection, Installation Testing & Commissioning and Design for and Selection of Fire Dampers. NAADUK believes this document will contribute
to a safer and healthier environment for all. Many of the guidelines, standards and regulations developed by the various associations concerned have contributed greatly to increased safety and
wellbeing. NAADUK is building on those pieces to bring everything together in one comprehensive document. Nygel Humphrey, head of the NAAD-22 working group, who produced the document stated: ‘The opportunity arose within NAADUK, whose members regularly come across post install issues when carrying out annual maintenance, to create a working group to identify the common issues and address these through publication, with the sole objective of creating a clear guide to inform and create a solid platform to raise competency and understanding within the industry.” To get your copy of NAAD-22: Fire Dampers either in print or as a download contact admin@naaduk.
