A great example of vertical ventilation on a fire today with Portland Fire & Rescue. Crews laddered the roof and performed vertical ventilation by cutting a hole to release smoke and gases. This also helps to improve visibility and conditions for firefighters working to extinguish the fire and to search for victims from inside the home. 🎥: BC Willard | Clackamas Fire

Vertical ventilation in firefighting is a tactical operation where firefighters release heat, smoke, and toxic gases from a burning structure by creating an opening in the highest point of the building—usually the roof. 👉 Purpose: ➡️To improve visibility inside the structure for search and rescue or interior attack. ➡️To reduce heat and smoke buildup, making conditions safer for firefighters and trapped occupants. ➡️To prevent flashover or backdraft by controlling the movement of hot gases.

Do we vertically vent to lift conditions, or to stop fire spread? 💨🔥 Vertical ventilation is traditionally thought of as used to life smoke/heat conditions on the interior of the structure. It does this, in all building types, very effectively. Even UL admits that "Vertical ventilation is the most efficient type of natural ventilation". Regarding fire travel in a attic/cockloft - we have traditionally only thought of a "trench cut". These are still effective when applicable, but remain rather

SBCoFD Truck Company Operations: Vertical Ventilation When you see firefighters on the roof of a burning building, it’s not random or reckless, it’s a coordinated operation. Vertical ventilation is a critical tactic between Interior and Roof Divisions working in sync.

This coordination reduces interior temperatures, limits flashove
