Protect first responders with the AIRVAC 911® Engine Exhaust Removal System. No hoses and hands free, this automatic system protects 100% of the apparatus bay area by constantly monitoring and automatically removing diesel exhaust and particulate matter from your station. At the heart of our four-stage filtration system is a MERV 16 rated filter that has the
ability to remove particles 0.3-1.0 microns in size.
There are no building modifications, vehicle attachments, ducting or external exhaust fans. Plus, the system doesn't interfere with daily operations or response time. Address hot zones by removing off-gassing of turnout gear, hoses and parked vehicles. Remove "engine backwash" every time a vehicle leaves and returns.
AIRVAC 911® meets NFPA requirements, is half the cost of hose systems and the only maintenance is periodic filter changes.
Control the spread of contaminants.
