Excess Gas Production

What happens when HomeBiogas continues to produce gas if you aren't using it?

The HomeBiogas gas bag can store the biogas generated until used. HomeBiogas 2.0's gas bag has a capacity of 700 liters.  

If your gas bag is full to capacity, and the digester continues to produce gas, the excess gas will be automatically released from the system by our specially designed pressure-release mechanism.

Safety

The pressure-release mechanism ensures that there will never be excessive pressure on the gas bag and that the appliance will never explode from excess gas production.

It is better for the excess gas to be released outside and not indoors. If you put your HomeBiogas in a greenhouse or in your garage for the winter months, please make sure it is properly ventilated, as excess gas will be released automatically.
