Smoke extraction windows (SHEV windows for short) ensure that toxic smoke gases are quickly and effectively extracted in the event of a fire. This not only protects the building structure, but above all also human lives. Escape routes remain smoke-free and the emergency services can act more quickly.
The function of smoke extraction windows
Smoke extraction windows work in conjunction with smoke detectors and control units that signal the window to open when smoke develops. Electric motors ensure that the windows open quickly.
Expansion options for daily ventilation
In addition to the safety-relevant function of smoke vent windows, modern systems offer additional benefits for everyday use. For example, motorised SHEV windows enable efficient and natural ventilation.
Intelligent ventilation systems that optimise the indoor climate are particularly practical. Sensor-based control systems are used to optimise parameters such as:
- Wind strength and direction
- Outside temperature and precipitation
- room temperature
- air humidity
- CO2 content
continuously. With the help of this data, the ventilation adapts to the current conditions. This not only increases comfort, but also enables energy savings. Fresh air only flows into the rooms when it is actually needed, while stale air is automatically extracted.
Areas of application for SHEV windows
SHEV windows are used in numerous types of buildings. They are widely used in public facilities such as schools, hospitals and shopping centres. Modern office buildings also use SHEV windows to improve the indoor climate.
SHEV windows are also used in multi-storey car parks and event halls. Smoke extraction windows are therefore an indispensable component of modern safety and ventilation systems that create safe and comfortable living and working environments.
Our smoke extraction and ventilation motors for windows
Our systems combine smoke extraction with controlled and natural ventilation through motorised windows, supported by sophisticated sensor technology.
Our motor solutions adapt flexibly to different window types, including skylights and skylight domes. Seamless integration into the window profile systems of leading manufacturers ensures a perfect solution for efficient and convenient ventilation.
Comprehensive service for SHEV windows
Our service covers all phases relating to smoke vent windows - from the initial consultation to regular maintenance.
Consulting
As early as the consultation phase, we support you in selecting suitable functional variants, performance levels and motor colours in order to find a solution that perfectly matches your requirements, both technically and aesthetically.
Planning
During the planning phase, we develop precise concepts that optimally coordinate drives, control centres and accessories. Each project is customised and tailored to the specific conditions of your building. Our aim is to create customised smoke extraction and ventilation concepts that combine the highest safety standards with maximum convenience.
Close co-operation with architects, planners and building owners ensures that all processes run smoothly. In this way, we guarantee efficient realisation in which deadlines are met and all requirements are taken into account.
Installation & commissioning
Once the planning has been completed, our specialists will professionally install and commission the smoke extraction windows. Through careful acceptance, we ensure that the systems function perfectly and are immediately ready for operation.
Maintenance
We offer regular maintenance services to ensure that the systems work reliably in the long term. This keeps your smoke extraction windows in optimum condition at all times and ensures maximum safety and efficiency in the long term.
