Breathe clean air with the AIRVAC 911® Engine Exhaust Removal System. No hoses and hands free, this automatic system protects 100% of the apparatus bay area without requiring building modifications, vehicle attachments, outside exhausting or interfering with daily operations.
Address hot zones by removing off-gassing of turnout gear, hoses and parked vehicles. Remove “engine backwash” every time a vehicle leaves and returns. And have the flexibility to move vehicles from bay-to-bay.
AIRVAC 911® meets NFPA requirements, is half the cost of hose systems and the only maintenance is periodic filter changes.
Control the spread of hazardous contaminants.
