Ventilation

Backdraft

When sufficient heat is confined in an area, the temperature of combustible materials rise to their ignition points. These materials will not ignite. However, unless sufficient oxygen is available to support combustion. In this situation, a very dangerous condition exists because the admittance of an air supply is all that is needed to explosively change the superheated area into an instant inferno.

Ventilation

• Problems with windowless buildings.– Adversely affect fire fighting and ventilation

ops.– Ventilation may by delayed, allowing the fire to

gain headway or to create backdraft conditions.– Usually require mechanical ventilation for

smoke removal.– May be able to use mechanical ventilation and

built-in ventilation systems.
