Major air pollutants in Parking Spaces
Enclosed parking areas can fill with many air pollutants. These include carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), sulfur oxides (SOx), and particulate matter (PM2.5 & PM10), and each one can harm human health.
PM2.5 & PM10
PM levels go up in underground parking with poor airflow, as the fine dust has no room to spread.
CO
Sources include exhaust fumes from vehicles, along with gasoline-powered tools and generators on site.
VOC
Gasoline and diesel exhaust, plus fumes given off by building materials, cleaning agents, and more.
SOx
Exhaust from gasoline and other fuels burned in vehicles can release a mix of toxins, including SOx.
NOx
Burning fuel at high heat, as happens inside a running engine, can give off NOx gas into the air.
VOCs
VOCs from vehicles can add to the build-up of ozone at ground level.
SOx
A shift to alternative fuels can bring SOx emissions down.
NOx
Driving habits help too, since gentle starts and a steady speed can cut the NOx emissions from your engine.
PM2.5 & PM10
Poor airflow in underground parking lets fine particles linger, so PM levels climb higher.
CO
Exhaust from cars and trucks is one source, and gasoline-powered tools and generators add to it.
Health Effects
Parking lots add to air pollution through exhaust fumes from cars, plus dust and debris from unpaved surfaces, which can hurt the health and well-being of the people who live nearby.

AQI Mobile AppFrequently Asked Questions
About air quality solutions for car parking spaces - have a question? We're here to help.
- Poor air quality in parking lots can harm the health of drivers, pedestrians, and nearby residents. It can also add to wider pollution and play a part in climate change.
- Exhaust fumes from vehicles are the most common source of air pollution in parking lots, while dust and particulate matter from tires and brakes add to it as well.
- Poor air quality in parking lots can lead to breathing problems, sore eyes, headaches, and other health issues. Long-term exposure may also raise the risk of cancer and other chronic diseases.
- There are several ways to improve the air in a parking lot. Promote the use of low-emission vehicles and add green areas with trees and plants. Check the air quality around the clock, install air filtration systems, and improve the airflow.
- Air quality monitoring solutions for parking lots can include sensor-based systems such as Prana Air monitors. Real-time data analytics and AQI mobile apps then give users clear air quality updates.
- Air quality data collected in parking lots can be used to study how air pollution affects human health and the environment. It can also guide public policy and the rules that are set for clean air.
