Smoke vent rooflights (AOVs) in Cookstown: what is involved?
We handle smoke vent rooflights (AOVs) across County Tyrone, including Cookstown. In short: automatic smoke ventilators at the head of stairwells and atria. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
Many Northern Irish homes have later flat-roofed kitchen extensions where an old dome can be swapped for glass. Think of smoke vent rooflights (AOVs) for communal stairwells, corridors and atria.
Cookstown sits about 12 km from Coalisland and 15 km from Magherafelt, and we cover the whole BT80 postcode district and the roads in between.

Smoke vents are life-safety equipment: in Northern Ireland the appropriate person must keep them maintained under the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010.
