Kitchen Ventilation

Solutions

Typical Installation

- Commercial Kitchen (Grease)

The USGF is specifically designed for heavy restaurant grease
and food service applications. These fans are UL and cUL Listed
for grease removal and have been tested under high temperature
(400° F) and abnormal flare-up (600° F) conditions.
Due to high temperatures and grease-laden airstreams in
commercial kitchen ventilation, system designers must be aware
of governing codes and guidelines. The National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) is the primary source upon where many
codes for commercial kitchens ventilation are based. Selected
information from NFPA is shown below. Local code authorities
should be consulted before proceeding with any kitchen
ventilation project.
Exhaust fans used in kitchen ventilation applications must have
external wiring. (Wiring must not be installed in airstream.)
Installation must include a means for inspecting, cleaning and servicing the exhaust fan.
(e.g. Hinged Curb Cap)
No dampers are to be installed in the system.
