Automatic Opening Vents


Usually located at the top of a ventilation shaft or at the head of a stairwell where up to 1.5 m2 of free vent area is required, the Stardome AOV presents total specification flexibility.

- All units made to measure
- Glazed or solid top
- Concealed mechanism giving clear uninterrupted opening
- Easy installation
- Opens to 90°
- Supplied with or without control backup

The lid or top of the unit can be supplied in two forms:
Solid metal panel, insulated and polyester powder coated— generally at the head of a smoke shaft when only ventilation is required in case of a fire (no need for light).

Glazed top in single, double or triple skin polycarbonate, which can be made in the full range of sizes.

Stardome AOV’s can be supplied with their own kerb for fixing directly to the roof deck and then weathered in the traditional manner with the roofing membrane being dressed up the
outside of an insulated kerb.

Alternatively if a kerb is being constructed as part of the roofing system (metal roofing or a builder’s kerb) then we are able to supply a kerb adaptor.

Both kerb and kerb adaptor units are manufactured from folded galvanised steel or aluminium, both materials being polyester
powder coated white.

This type of product is usually specified by the Mechanical and Electrical Consultant as part of an overall smoke / fire ventilation/alarm system, and as an integral part, is linked into a control panel.
