Rooms protected with clean agents - FM-200™, FE-227™, NOVEC 1230™, ECARO 25™ - rely on the integrity of the enclosure to maintain the design concentration of the agent. Holes, leaks and penetrations into a sealed room can seriously compromise the system's ability to extinguish a fire.

Room integrity or "fan" testing is a non-emissive means of measuring the total area of the holes in the protected room using a proprietary blower door and software which computes the worst-case leakage of the fire protection gas mixture through those holes.

Although fan testing is a necessary part of the initial acceptance test for a new clean agent system, buildings are not static environments. Changes made to protected spaces, after the system has been installed, could diminish your system's performance during an actual emergency.

We recommend fan testing your room, each year, in conjunction with the inspection of your system.
