The complaint has stated that the smoke is intermittent, but when it kicks off, it's inside of our apartment.

Now we've detected a very minor leak, just with the overpressure valves.

No LEL, no detectable limits.

Right now, we're walking through the interior to verify that we've got nothing on the inside, and then we should be able to start clearing units.

We need VNG at all?
01:27
I'd advise VNG, but not emergent.

It's not any kind of active leak.

Again, it's just not the over-pressurization valve.
