Parking Garages
Enclosed and underground parking garages present significant air quality challenges due to hazardous vehicle exhaust emissions, particularly carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). These gases can accumulate in confined spaces, especially when vehicles idle for extended periods, posing serious health risks. Regulatory frameworks like the International Mechanical Code (IMC) establish minimum ventilation rates, while OSHA sets permissible exposure limits (PELs) for CO and NO2 to maintain safe air quality levels for workers and the public.
Comprehensive gas detection and ventilation systems are essential for ensuring compliance with these regulations. Such systems meet IMC requirements by providing continuous, real-time monitoring of CO and NO2 levels, and integrating key components like UL 2075-certified gas sensors, ventilation controls, and alarms. UL 2075 certification guarantees that these sensors operate with high sensitivity and durability, ensuring reliable detection of hazardous gas concentrations, even in challenging garage environments.
Dynamic gas detection systems adjust ventilation rates based on real-time gas data, activating fans only when necessary to enhance energy efficiency and reduce costs. When gas levels approach unsafe thresholds, the system engages ventilation to quickly disperse harmful gases. These systems, compliant with OSHA PELs, IMC, and broader safety regulations like NFPA 88A, not only maintain air quality but also integrate with fire safety measures, offering a comprehensive solution for protecting public health and ensuring regulatory compliance in parking garages.
