Smoke and Heat Extraction (RWA)

Fittich delivers engineering led smoke and heat extraction solutions (RWA) designed to protect lives, support safe evacuation, and enhance building resilience in the event of a fire.

Our Approach

In fire scenarios, the greatest risk often comes from smoke rather than flames. Fittich systems are engineered to rapidly remove smoke and heat, keeping escape routes clear and enabling safe access for emergency services.

Our solutions range from single zone systems to large scale installations for complex buildings, all designed to ensure reliable performance when it matters most.

By maintaining clear visibility and reducing heat build up, our systems play a critical role in protecting occupants and supporting effective firefighting operations.

Integrated Ventilation Solutions

Fittich smoke and heat extraction systems can also incorporate natural and hybrid ventilation, providing both safety and operational efficiency.

Natural Ventilation
Using temperature differences and airflow dynamics, natural ventilation regulates indoor climate without mechanical input. Systems can be automatically activated through temperature or CO2 sensors, ensuring optimal air exchange and safety.

This approach not only enhances safety but also improves indoor air quality, supporting occupant well being and productivity.

Hybrid Ventilation
For more demanding environments, Fittich offers mixed mode systems that combine natural and mechanical ventilation. These systems intelligently switch between modes, ensuring consistent performance regardless of external conditions.

Smarter Buildings, Safer Environments

By integrating smoke extraction with ventilation strategies, Fittich delivers systems that:

  • Keep escape routes clear during emergencies
  • Support safe and efficient evacuation
  • Enable effective firefighter intervention
  • Improve indoor air quality during normal operation
  • Reduce energy consumption through optimized airflow management


Fittich smoke and heat extraction solutions combine advanced engineering, intelligent control, and integrated design, delivering safer buildings and more efficient environments.
