November 2019 Meeting

Fire Smoke Dampers

Michael Bulzomi from RF Peck Company Inc. in Albany, New York joined the Champlain Valley ASHRAE Club for a talk on the basics of fire smoke dampers. The topics included damper types and applications, how dampers work, and the codes that designers, engineers, and installers need to adhere to. Michael was happy to speak to our chapter members about specific dampers in their project to make sure the best/safest damper is selected.

Michael has more than a decade of experience on the sales, marketing, applications, design, and manufacture of a wide breadth of HVAC products. He has served as lead and contributing author to numerous white papers and trade publication articles on various Life Safety Damper related topics. Michael has also been the invited speaker to present to the American Society of Healthcare Engineers (ASHE), the Texas Association of Hospital Facility Managers (TAHFM), local chapters of ASHRAE, and numerous engineering and contracting firms across North America.
