Look at your local building and
fire codes to see if this is a
requirement.<br>
Here in NY, the local fire code
requires "Spill Control and
Neutralization"<br>
when batteries with
"free-flowing liquid
electrolyte" are installed.<br>

Good Luck,<br>

Am I under any obligation to
provide a spill containment
system under an<br>
array of flooded batteries? If
so, what do you recommend under
a 8' x 11'<br>
array of Hawkers? William
