Autopilot CO2 generators
Elevated atmospheric CO2 levels show remarkable increases in plant growth productivity, and creating these elevated levels in your grow room is simply the easiest way to accelerate plant growth. Autopilot CO2 generators provide and maintain the carbon dioxide levels needed to meet maximum growing potential, and operate for only pennies a day.
Features
These highly reliable CO2 generators feature powder-coated steel enclosures that resist moisture, rust and discoloration, providing years of trouble-free operation. They are very safe and easy to operate. The built-in solid-state electronic ignition module creates a spark to light the burners. The units are also equipped with a safety tip over feature that shuts off the gas source if the unit is tipped or falls over. Autopilot generators are available in both propane and natural gas models, along with high-altitude versions in all sizes.
All models are equipped with:
-
Precision manufactured brass burners
-
Solid-state electronic ignition module—no pilot light necessary
-
TIP OVER switch shuts off gas source if the unit falls or tips over
-
SHUT DOWN warning with LED error indicator lights
Specifications
The tip shutoff switch engages at an angle of 30° +/-5°. Disengages, allowing, the unit to turn back on when the unit is returned to ≤ 10° angle.
Three sizes available—4-burner, 8-burner, and 10-burner (adjustable: 2-, 5-, 7-, or 10-burner option)
-
4-Burner: Spaces 14' x 14' and smaller
-
8-Burner: Spaces 28' x 28' and smaller
-
10-Burner: Spaces 35' x 35' and smaller

Maintenance Tips
-
Clean Burners Weekly: Inspect and clean all eight burners with a soft brush to prevent soot buildup and ensure efficient combustion.
-
Check Gas Connections: Regularly inspect gas hoses and fittings for leaks or wear. Use soapy water to detect leaks and replace damaged components immediately.
-
Test Ignition: Confirm proper ignition of all burners before each use to ensure consistent CO2 output.
-
Calibrate CO2 Levels: Periodically adjust output to meet your grow room's specific requirements.
-
Dust and Debris Removal: Keep the exterior and air intake vents clear of dust for optimal airflow and performance.
-
Inspect Safety Features: Test the tip-over switch, flame sensors, and overheat protection monthly to ensure proper function.
-
Ventilation: Maintain adequate ventilation in the grow room to prevent CO2 over-accumulation.
-
Annual Professional Service: Have a certified technician perform a comprehensive inspection and servicing annually.
