FAQs

RCSM works by having technicians monitoring a confined space via an offsite screen. Each technician is able to watch 12 zones at once, which reduces the number of man hours. Traditional confined space monitoring relies on a 1:1 monitoring ratio, while Proveo’s technology allows for a 12:1 monitoring ratio. Saving you money.

Many shutdown and turnaround activities within a confined space create combustible dust. This dust can be a dangerous fire risk and health risk for the workers within the space. Filtering dust particles from the air creates a safer work environment for employees and reduces the risk of fire or explosion.

By monitoring the entrances of a confined space our technicians are able to see who is currently working within the confined space, maintain an accurate occupant count, communicate with those within the space and provide accurate information to emergency response teams in the event of an emergency. Safety matters.

It is important to control the climate within a confined space in order to keep the area comfortable for workers. While cooling is essential in summer months, there is also a need for heating in the colder months. Due to the risk of fire and explosion, it is important to use a safe method to provide heat to the space. Proveo’s ventilation technicians are experts in providing flameless heating options for confined spaces that allow for an extra level of cautiousness.

Our enhanced gas detection and monitoring (EGDM) exceeds the minimum standard for gas detection of confined spaces and takes area monitoring to the next level. By using our technology to continually monitor gases within a space, we have real-time information about current conditions. Traditional methods involve periodic testing which results in a lag in data. Our systems go above and beyond, keeping your worksite and your team safe.

Air quality affects your business, that’s the bottom line. Poor indoor air quality, or air pollution, can have a direct and negative impact on employees’ health leading to reduced productivity. Your employees’ health is of the utmost importance and you must keep your people safe. Poor air quality in workplaces can lead to reduced concentration and poor cognitive function and can have long-term damaging health effects for your employees. Trust us to protect your people and your business with a customized confined space air ventilation and filtration system.

Most industrial worksites can benefit from a dust collection system. Manufacturing and shutdown processes in particular produce a range of harmful dust particles that can accumulate and cause harm in the workplace. Common industry projects that benefit from dust collection include oil and gas, mining, pulp and paper, concrete production and construction. No matter the industry, we have the dust collection solution for you.

Our ventilation plans are comprehensive and include a site visit and walkdown, 3D model of specific site and vessel and a to-scale ventilation plan illustrating systems in place. Our customized solutions are unmatched and can be integrated completely into our remote confined space monitoring technology.

Proveo’s experienced technicians are well-versed in providing flameless heating for confined spaces that will not contribute to ongoing air quality concerns and are safe for use under potentially dangerous conditions. Whatever your climate control needs, our technology provides heating, cooling and dehumidification solutions to avoid any atmospheric hazards and to ensure your workspace is safe, effective and efficient.

The level of humidity in a confined space is an important factor that an HVAC system cannot do enough to remedy. Relative humidity encourages condensation on cold surfaces which can lead to mold growth, corrosion, or slipping hazards. Even worse, excess humidity and mold growth can lead to respiratory problems for your employees. If a confined workspace has become muggy, it may require a commercial dehumidifier to alleviate this issue. Trust us to keep your climate and humidity levels under control. Our climate control solutions create safe and comfortable work environments for your team.
