Technical FAQs 4

Do you need ventilation standards for a battery installation?

Most jurisdictions require specific ventilation standards for battery installations, particularly in commercial and industrial settings. These regulations aren't arbitrary—they're based on decades of research into battery behavior and safety incidents.

How much air should a battery room be ventilated?

The battery rooms must be adequately ventilated to keep the concentration of hydrogen gas within safe limits. Some codes suggest that the battery rooms shall be ventilated at a minimum rate of 1.5 cubic feet per minute per square foot, with care to ensure proper air distribution to and within the battery storage area.

Is your battery room ventilation system a safety checkbox?

When it comes to high-performance racing applications, your battery room ventilation system isn't just a regulatory checkbox—it's a critical safety component that can make or break your entire energy storage operation.

Why do batteries need to be ventilated?

The battery rooms must be adequately ventilated to prohibit the build-up of hydrogen gas. During normal operations, off gassing of the batteries is relatively small. However, the concern is elevated during times of heavy recharge or the batteries, which occur immediately following a rapid and deep discharge of the battery.
