Air Sealing & Fire Stopping

HRS Services has been involved in the air sealing of existing and new buildings since 1995.

Initially working with large supermarket chains to improve customer comfort and reduce heating costs by undertaking remedial air sealing of stores.

HRS Have been involved with the air sealing and fire stopping to over 800 supermarkets.

Using our experience in roped access we are able to undertake air sealing works at high level and for example above suspended ceiling safely and with a minimum of disruption to staff and other contractors.

The experience gained for approaching 15 years enables us to quickly locate potential problem areas and offer solutions where possible that are:

• Safe
• Effective
• Cost-efficient

Since the new part L regulations were introduced in 2002 HRS have become more involved with the air sealing of new building and are able to offer a service second to none from initial design reviews and site audits to onsite sealing works and onto the final air integrity test

Air Sealing & Fire Stopping Contracting Work

Whatever and wherever the project, HRS guarantees customer satisfaction by delivering a high standard of air sealing and fire stopping contracting work with good finish and minimum inconvenience - on time and in budget. HRS has dedicated highly skilled and trained air sealing teams working across the UK; supported from our base in Sheffield.

Whilst the principles of air sealing are straight forward, success comes from understanding and co-ordinating the air sealing details for the huge variety of modern materials and systems, which combine to form a modern building. HRS will probably have delivered airtight envelopes to similar construction types in the past and are able to install durable, cost-effective solutions. If not, we will have the understanding and contacts to develop a practical way forward.

Should a building fail its first air test, HRS has the skills to deliver a solution. HRS has a 100% success rate in reducing air leakage rates, to below that stated in specifications, after failed air tests. Typically, remedial works take five to fifteen days depending on the extent of works required. Similar success has been gained on refurbishment projects or operational buildings, working at night or with phased work to minimise disruption.
