Most mechanical codes indicate that ventilation for parking structures should be continuous unless a system is in place to ensure hazardous gas concentrations are kept below prescribed levels. By ventilating only when sensors indicate a requirement, there is an opportunity for very significant energy savings, both from reduced fan operation and from any related heating or cooling costs.

Vehicle exhaust presents an interesting challenge when designing a gas detection system. Because of the wide variety of applications, including underground parking garages, bus barns, maintenance facilities, tunnels, train stations, airports, loading docks, car and truck dealerships and warehouses, a number of different gas detection solutions exist to satisfy the varying requirements.

Engineered Controls exclusively uses Honeywell Analytics gas detection products for a comprehensive range of gas monitoring in instrumentation for commercial buildings. Honeywell Analytics makes it easy to adapt quickly to changing building requirements with solutions that safeguard against toxic and flammable gas hazards in buildings and parking garages.
