1. A semi-closed compartment gas management system, comprising:
(i) a power source,
(ii) an impeller configured to be driven by the power source and create a gas flow,
(iii) a conduit having a gas inlet in communication with a semi-closed compartment and an outlet in contact with a discharge means,
(iv) a fluid barrier receptacle comprises a fluid inlet supine aperture and configured to be connected to the conduit between its gas inlet and outlet and further comprises a float component,
wherein the gas flow created by the impeller is designated to flow from the semi-closed compartment and through the conduit and wherein the fluid barrier receptacle is configured to block gas originating from the discharge means from spreading to the semi-closed compartment while the impeller is not operating and,
wherein the float component is vertically adjustable and configured to operate autonomously in order to prevent block by utilizing a protrusion characterized as a rod having ridges and grooves and having a clearance gap fit with the fluid inlet aperture, and
wherein the alternating operation of the float component that comprises the protrusion entering and exiting the inlet aperture is configured to prevent or remove scale deposits from the inlet aperture.
