ventilation safety for neighbors outside

wendybritt · #1 2011-05-07, 11:21am

Can any of our safety guru's give me some information on ventilation safety /air quality outside my studio?

My vent exits about 10 feet off the ground on the south side of my shed, which is about 7 feet from our property line. There is a chain link fence on the property line. A couple feet on the neighbors side of the fence and down [west] about 10 feet is a children's swingset. My neighbors have expressed some concern about safety for their kids. I would like to be able to share honest, thoughtful information with them.

I'm by no means an expert on this, but given that fresh air needs to enter 10 linear feet from where the bad air exits, I would think you're far enough away to not create a risk to the kids.

I concur....

Once the NOX and CO are outside the will mix and dissipate with the "fresh air" pretty rapidly...
