Garage Door Emergency Ventilation System
The present invention relates to a garage door emergency ventilation system primarily comprised of at least one track, at least one screen assembly, and at least one control module. The system can be attached to a panel of a garage door, wherein the control module has at least one sensor that preferably detects carbon monoxide. Once the sensor has detected carbon monoxide above a threshold value, the control module communicates with a motor to retract a fastener from an inner track within the track that is attached to the screen assembly. At the same time, the control module communicates with a garage door opener of the garage door to open the garage door. The screen assembly falls downward to cover the opening left by the opened garage door. The screen assembly further prevents individuals from getting into the garage while allowing carbon monoxide gas to vent from the garage.
