At Airlight, we provide end-to-end, AI-powered solutions for basement car parking safety and ventilation systems. Our integrated approach combines mechanical ventilation, smoke management, fire and gas detection, and water-based sprinkler and fire curtain systems.
We also offer public address systems, talkback speakers, and emergency lighting, creating a connected safety ecosystem designed specifically for enclosed parking facilities. Our systems are built to optimize performance, ensure compliance, and deliver maximum protection for people and infrastructure.
With the rise of electric vehicles (EVs), basement car parks are facing new and complex challenges. The increasing installation of EV charging stations introduces higher fire risks and demands more advanced safety measures.
Lithium-ion batteries used in EVs pose additional hazards, including thermal runaway and the release of toxic gases that may not be detected by traditional systems. These risks require advanced ventilation, battery gas detection, and intelligent fire control solutions to protect both vehicles and occupants.
Basement parking structures must meet a broad range of regulatory standards, covering ventilation, fire safety, electrical systems, structural integrity, and accessibility.
Key requirements include:
– Effective mechanical ventilation to manage harmful gases like carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide
– Integrated fire detection and suppression systems that meet international and local standards such as NFPA, NBC, and ASHRAE
– Emergency communication and evacuation systems
– EV-specific safety protocols, including battery gas detection and thermal risk management.
Non-compliance can result in serious safety issues, legal penalties, and operational disruptions. At Airlight, we ensure our solutions meet all relevant regulations, helping clients build safe, future-ready parking environments.
Jet Fan Ventilation: The Modern Alternative
Our Jet Fan Ventilation Systems offer a smart, space-saving alternative to traditional ducted systems.
Benefits include:
– Compact design that saves valuable space by eliminating ductwork
– Flexible installation suited to complex layouts
– Effective air circulation that prevents buildup of toxic gases
– Energy-efficient operation with lower installation and maintenance costs
– Dual-function capability for daily ventilation and emergency smoke control
Jet fans improve airflow, reduce energy consumption, and enhance overall safety, making them ideal for modern parking structures.
Water curtain systems are active fire suppression solutions used to prevent the spread of smoke, heat, and flames during a fire. In basement car parking areas, they are often installed where physical fire barriers, like walls or shutters, are not practical—such as openings between parking zones or near ramps and exits.
These systems help maintain compartmentation by creating a curtain of water when activated. A pump supplies water through a deluge valve system; the piping up to the valve is filled with pressurized water, while the piping to the nozzles stays dry until triggered by a fire.
