Macurco boiler room gas detection is an essential life-safety solution for any facility that relies on gas-fired boilers—especially hotels, multifamily buildings, and commercial properties. Undetected leaks of combustible gases or buildup of toxic carbon monoxide can lead to catastrophic explosions, health hazards, and costly shutdowns.
For hotel engineers and security dealers, ensuring proper detection in boiler rooms isn’t just best practice—it’s becoming a code requirement in many jurisdictions. Macurco offers a reliable, easy-to-install, and code-compliant gas detection system that helps you prevent disasters and protect occupants.

Why Hotel Owners and Engineers Need Macurco
Boiler rooms are the beating heart of any hospitality facility. Unfortunately, they’re also prone to silent killers—gas leaks and carbon monoxide (CO) buildup. Hotels that neglect proper detection not only risk the lives of guests and staff, but they also face legal exposure, bad press, and unexpected downtime.
Macurco’s gas detection system is a turnkey solution:
-
Meets Evolving Code Requirements: States like Florida and Georgia are adopting stricter gas detection and shutdown requirements. Macurco helps hotels stay compliant.
-
Prevents Costly Disasters: Automatic shutoff and visual/audible alarms mitigate risk before it turns into an emergency.
-
Easily Integrates with BMS/HVAC Systems: Security integrators and hotel engineers can seamlessly connect Macurco detectors to existing safety and automation systems.
-
Backed by a U.S.-Based Team: Technical support, training, and calibration support from Sioux Falls, SD.
