PARKING GARAGES
CAR DEALERSHIPS / MAINTENANCE BAYS
Enclosed parking garages have long been using detection for vehicle exhaust. The primary
gases present are Carbon Monoxide and Nitrogen Dioxide resulting from incomplete
combustion within vehicles.
A prominent benefit of installing a gas detection system in a garage is the cost
savings on electrical and energy consumption. On average within one year of
installing a system, the money spent on a gas detection system is recouped.
According to IMC 2018 – the only alternative to running fans at full
speed every hour of every day is to install a CO/NO
2
system.
COMMON GASES:
Carbon Monoxide, Nitrogen Dioxide, Combustibles

Car dealerships and maintenance bays are considered occupied spaces. Ventilation
equipment is heavily relied upon to mitigate vehicle exhaust that results in potential fumes
from Carbon Monoxide and Nitrogen Dioxide.
