[QUOTE="SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH, post: 329606, member: 16"] That is completely wrong. As Noz mentioned any vents would close on activation of the alarm to stop fuelling or the chimney effect. You would however have a smoke control switch somewhere near the fire panel to open the vents after. If the Velux was a fire exit it would need a fail safe latch or manual opening device to enable an exit but it would not physically open on fire alarm activation. [/QUOTE]
