About this file

This document contains a spreadsheet tracking deficiencies found in fire and smoke dampers across multiple buildings and floors. It lists the location, type, and orientation of each damper, and notes access issues and repairs needed.

The deficiencies include insufficient duct or ceiling access, dampers installed upside down or in flex ducts without access, and broken or missing damper links. Many dampers require installing or replacing access doors, from 6x6 to 24x16 inches. Some areas need chiseling or drilling to access dampers behind concrete or embedded in ductwork. The related federal contract opportunity is solicitation number 36C24623Q0976 from the Department of Veterans Affairs for smoke and fire damper repairs across its Veterans Health Administration facilities. The spreadsheet will help the contractor prepare its response by detailing the known repair sites and access requirements.
