Note: Water pressure may not drop below the minimum required PSI while the hood hot water is
operating. Pressure may not rise above 50 PSI when the hood is spraying. If the operating
pressure is greater than 50 PSI, a water regulator must be connected.
The chart above is for continuous back to back and/or end to end hood installations. If the pipe
connecting any hood contains excessive elbows or complicated paths, additional pressure may
be required to overcome this pressure loss. Contact engineering for clarification in these
circumstances.
