Car park ventilation in Suffolk
Jet fan and extract systems with CO detection for enclosed car parks, across Suffolk.
- From £26,200 + VAT per scheme

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.
We carry out car park ventilation across Suffolk, including Sudbury, Stowmarket, Newmarket, Ipswich and Lowestoft. Prices use East of England rates. The survey is free for new installations on the UK mainland, and the quote that follows is fixed and in writing.

What car park ventilation involves
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. We install, commission and maintain the systems and the detection that runs them.
Ducted extract
Traditional ducted systems where layout suits.
CO and NO2 detection
Sensors and controls for demand-led running.
Maintenance
Planned testing of fans, sensors and controls.
