THE METHOD OF VENTILATION MUST BE APPROVED BY THE LOCAL CODE ENFORCE-
MENT AGENCY PRIOR TO EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION.
1. The smoker ventilation system should comply with this manual and the current edition of NFPA® 96.
2. It is recommended that Local Code Officials and a Commercial Kitchen Ventilation Contractor be consult-
ed prior to installation.
3. Provisions must be made for adequate air supply for the smoker. If the smoker is to be installed in a sealed
room or building utilizing exhaust fans, the room must be supplied with a return air system. Return air
must be equal or in excess of the exhausted air.
4. The smoker should be positioned to provide a direct, or shortest, path to the outside for the exhaust duct.
