Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a key part of daily operations in convenience stores. In soda machines, CO2 is injected into water under pressure to create carbonation, giving beverages their signature fizz and texture. Aerosphere® CO2 monitoring systems deliver real-time detection and instant alerts for potential CO2 leaks, helping store operators maintain a safe environment while staying compliant with federal, state, and local gas safety codes.
CO2 is widely used in convenience stores for beverage carbonation. However, leaks from bulk storage tanks or piping can lead to elevated CO2 levels, especially in small or poorly ventilated back-of-house areas.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sets a permissible exposure limit (PEL) of 5,000 ppm over an 8-hour period, meaning that unnoticed leaks can pose a real safety risk to employees. Continuous monitoring not only protects worker health but also ensures operational uptime, compliance with local fire and building codes, and a safer environment for staff and customers alike.
