Smoke Extract System Witness Test Pending Final Payment Email Template

Use this page when final payment is delayed because the buyer says the smoke extract system witness test, smoke-control demonstration, or life-safety extraction signoff is still pending. This is different from a fire alarm or sprinkler certificate because the issue here is the witnessed functional test of the smoke extract system under the required scenario. The business problem is that the installation may already be in place, but the payer is still withholding payment until the formal witnessed test record is completed and accepted. Your email should ask whether the smoke-extract witness test is the only remaining blocker, whether testing has already been scheduled or carried out, what acceptance point is still open, and whether payment will be released once that witness record is approved. The outcome you want is to narrow the delay to one named smoke-control test instead of a broad life-safety completion dispute.
