What does a fire damper do?
In general a fire damper works when heat from a fire causes the normal temperature of a room to rise to approximately 165 degrees Fahrenheit i.e. it is designed to close automatically on the detection of heat. The fusible link which is attached to the damper melts causing the dampers' door to close.
Why are fire dampers required?
Why They're Necessary
The dampers prevent the spread of fire through heating, ventilation, and AC ducts, which helps to stop a fire from spreading throughout the rest of the home. They also help to prevent smoke from traveling through the building's ductwork in the event of a fire.
