CO₂ & climate control for Basement Parking

Safe air below ground, lower fan bills. Vehicle exhaust fills basements with carbon monoxide and CO₂.

The Challenge

Why air quality matters in Basement Parking

Vehicle exhaust fills basements with carbon monoxide and CO₂. Many buildings run huge exhaust fans all day to stay safe — or switch them off to save power and put people at risk. MychoAI runs the fans only when gas levels rise.

Common problems

  • Carbon monoxide from vehicles is invisible and harmful
  • Exhaust and jet fans running 24×7 cost a lot of electricity
  • Large basements have busy and quiet zones
How MychoAI Helps

Measure, ventilate, stay informed

CO and CO₂ sensors placed zone by zone across each level

Fans step up or change speed automatically when levels rise

Hooter, beacon and phone alerts if CO reaches unsafe levels

FAQ

Common questions

Can it work with our fire-safety smoke extraction?

Yes. In a fire the fire-alarm panel takes priority and MychoAI hands over fan control.

How much electricity can we save?

It depends on traffic and fan size. Fans usually run only during busy hours instead of all day — we estimate savings during the survey.
