Car park ventilation in Derbyshire
Jet fan and extract systems with CO detection for enclosed car parks, across Derbyshire.
- From £24,450 + VAT per scheme
- Free survey
Enclosed and underground car parks need mechanical ventilation to clear vehicle exhaust in normal use and, in many designs, to help clear smoke in a fire. We install and maintain jet fan and ducted extract systems with carbon monoxide detection and controls.
Every job in Derbyshire gets a written quote before it starts and a commissioning record when it finishes. We cover Derby, Chesterfield, Long Eaton, Ilkeston and Swadlincote and the villages around them.

What car park ventilation involves
Approved Document B sets out ventilation provisions for enclosed car parks, commonly 6 air changes an hour for normal use and 10 in fire conditions where mechanical ventilation is used. CO detection lets the system run at low speed most of the time and boost when pollution rises. Smoke control aspects are designed with the building's fire strategy and fire engineer.
Maintenance
Planned testing of fans, sensors and controls.
Jet fan systems
Ceiling-mounted fans moving air towards extract points.
Ducted extract
Traditional ducted systems where layout suits.
