RECEIPT AND INSPECTION
Upon receipt check carefully for any shipping damage to the carton, crate and hood.
Verify that all items as listed on the Bill of Lading have been received. Report any
damage or shortage to the carrier immediately so that any required claim can be
processed.
STORAGE
If storage is required, KEES recommends storing in a finished building or warehouse. If
stored outside, take care to suitably protect the unit from dirt, moisture, corrosion,
damage, etc.
INSTALLATION
The installation of this hood is to be in accordance with NFPA 96, Standard for
Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations. NFPA
96 has a number of installation requirements including minimum clearances to
“limited-combustibles” and “combustibles”. Consult NFPA 96 and all applicable
local codes before installing the hood.
Remove hood crating but do not remove protective plastic film until hood has been
installed. Place protective material between any equipment used to move or support the
hood during installation to prevent damage to the finish of the hood.
Threaded hanger nuts for ½” threaded rod are provided as shown at each corner of each
hood section. 12’ hood sections are also provided with 2 loose intermediate support
brackets for field location and mounting to hood. If rods cannot be provided directly in
the required locations, hang field supplied support bars across the hanger nuts with the
