Venting Requirements Our barbecue ovens are listed under multiple standards, including U.L. 737 (Fireplace Stoves), U.L. 2162 (Commercial Wood-Fired Baking Ovens), and U.L. 391 (Solid-Fuel and Combination-Fuel Central and Supplementary Furnaces. These listing provide two alternatives for exhausting our units: direct venting and exhaust hood venting. In all cases, it is imperative to obtain the approval of the AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction).

Option Two: Exhaust Hood Venting U.L. 2162 cites NFPA 96 (Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection for Commercial Cooking Operations) as its ventilation standard. While NFPA 96 allows direct ventilation with factory-built grease ducts or properly constructed welded ducts (with fire-rated enclosures), it also permits the exhaust hood ventilation option for our units.
