Air quality monitor beeping + funky smell

Something smells off in the Textiles room. I’m having difficulty tracking it down. The monitor os beeping, bit I’m not sure how to interpret. All the Resin stuff is off, but I turned on the power there to get extractor going.

it’s particles so either dust or smoke? fried food, vapes or soldering irons would do this as well

I think it’s a fire in a garden behind us. Joe went up and there’s a bunch of people standing around, looks like an intentional bonfire, possibly burning things they shouldn’t be.

Snug still smells like a toaster having a smoke break in the shower, but the air monitor is back in the yellow.

Yo my friend and I were sat in the textiles area at the time. That room has no ventilation so we climatized to it thinkin it was just a temporary thing from the 3D printers. Next thing the meter was beeping saying unsafe to breath lool. A dude come in the the room and pointed out it was just the textiles room that was smokey. Anyway we decided to go home. Only then I realised all my clothes and bag smelt like I’d been sitting beside a bonfire :sob: ffs. kinda scary experience.

Has someone left ducting gate above the resin printer open? This will backdraft fumes from the lase into the room if it’s not closed

We had the same snoke smell last weekend. Someone was burning a fire in a garden. The snug was completely smoked out.

We thought it could have been an electrical fire, but after a ladder and an inspection through the windows in the metal-shop, a guy was spotted burning. It took hours for the smell/smoke to clear.

Just to note we had a repeat of this issue on Saturday. Same garden I think, bonfire and smoking the place out.

Yes, definetly the same garden
