| | |
| | PLAN REVIEW RESULTS: DENIED. |

| | THE INSTALLATION OF A KITCHEN HOOD, HOWEVER THE PLANS |
| | ARE INDICATING A TENANT BUILD-OUT WHICH WILL REQUIRE A |
| | GENERAL CONTRACTOR TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION WITH AN |
| | ACCURATE WORK DESCRIPTION, AND A VALUE THAT WILL |
| | INCLUDE ALL PHASES OF THE PROJECT- BUILDING, |
| | MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL, AND PLUMBING/GAS- SEE SECTIONS |

| | PLANS AS THEY ARE NOW RECEIVING A FULL REVIEW BY THE |
| | BUILDING, FIRE, AND PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENTS. |
| | |
| | 2) PROVIDE AIR BALANCE CALCULATIONS ON THE PLAN IN THE |
| | FORM OF A SCHEDULE THAT INDICATES ALL EXHAUST AND |
| | REPLACEMENT AIR FOR THE FACILITY, PLUS THE NET |
| | EXFILTRATION IF APPLICABLE. THE TOTAL REPLACEMENT |
| | AIRFLOW RATE SHALL EQUAL THE TOTAL EXHAUST AIRFLOW RATE |
| | PLUS THE NET EXFILTRATION- SECTION 508.1.2. |
| | |
| | 3) VERIFY THAT THE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL BETWEEN THE |
| | EXHAUST HOOD MAKEUP AIR AND THE AIR IN THE CONDITIONED |
| | SPACE DOES NOT EXCEED 10 DEGREES F- SECTION 508.1.1. |
| | |
| | 4) VERIFY COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION C403.2.8 FLORIDA |
| | ENERGY CONSERVATION CODE PERTAINING TO THE KITCHEN |
| | EXHAUST SYSTEM: |
| | |
| | C403.2.8: REPLACEMENT AIR INTRODUCED DIRECTLY INTO THE |
| | EXHAUST HOOD CAVITY SHALL NOT BE GREATER THAN 10 |
| | PERCENT OF THE HOOD EXHAUST AIRFLOW RATE. CONDITIONED |
| | SUPPLY AIR DELIVERED TO ANY SPACE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE |
| | GREATER OF THE FOLLOWING: |
| | |
| | 1.THE VENTILATION RATE REQUIRED TO MEET THE SPACE |
| | HEATING OR COOLING LOAD. |
| | 2.THE HOOD EXHAUST FLOW MINUS THE AVAILABLE TRANSFER |
| | AIR FROM ADJACENT SPACE WHERE AVAILABLE TRANSFER AIR IS |
| | CONSIDERED THAT PORTION OF OUTDOOR VENTILATION AIR NOT |
| | REQUIRED TO SATISFY OTHER EXHAUST NEEDS, SUCH AS |
| | RESTROOMS, AND NOT REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN PRESSURIZATION |
| | OF ADJACENT SPACES. |
| | WHERE TOTAL KITCHEN HOOD EXHAUST AIRFLOW RATE IS |
| | GREATER THAN 5,000 CFM (2360 L/S), EACH HOOD SHALL BE A |
| | FACTORY BUILT COMMERCIAL EXHAUST HOOD LISTED BY A |
| | NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED TESTING LABORATORY IN COMPLIANCE |
| | WITH UL 710. EACH HOOD SHALL HAVE A MAXIMUM EXHAUST |
| | RATE AS SPECIFIED IN TABLE C403.2.8 AND SHALL COMPLY |
| | WITH ONE OF THE FOLLOWING: |
| | 1.NOT LESS THAN 50 PERCENT OF ALL REPLACEMENT AIR SHALL |
| | BE TRANSFER AIR THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE EXHAUSTED. |
| | 2.DEMAND VENTILATION SYSTEMS ON NOT LESS THAN 75 |
| | PERCENT OF THE EXHAUST AIR THAT ARE CAPABLE OF NOT LESS |
| | THAN A 50-PERCENT REDUCTION IN EXHAUST AND REPLACEMENT |
| | AIR SYSTEM AIRFLOW RATES, INCLUDING CONTROLS NECESSARY |
| | TO MODULATE AIRFLOW IN RESPONSE TO APPLIANCE OPERATION |
| | AND TO MAINTAIN FULL CAPTURE AND CONTAINMENT OF SMOKE, |
| | EFFLUENT AND COMBUSTION PRODUCTS DURING COOKING AND |
| | IDLE. |
| | 3.LISTED ENERGY RECOVERY DEVICES WITH A SENSIBLE HEAT |
| | RECOVERY EFFECTIVENESS OF NOT LESS THAN 40 PERCENT ON |
| | NOT LESS THAN 50 PERCENT OF THE TOTAL EXHAUST AIRFLOW. |
| | |
| | 5) PROVIDE AN ELEVATION VIEW OF THE NEW HOOD AND THAT |
| | SHOWS THE FOLLOWING: A)THE VERTICAL DISTANCE BETWEEN |
| | THE FRONT LOWER LIP OF THE HOOD AND THE TOP HORIZONTAL |
| | SURFACE OF THE COOKING APPLIANCES ON ALL OPEN SIDES- |
| | SECTION 507.4.1. B) THE EXHAUST AND MAKEUP AIR SUPPLY |
| | DUCT RUNS AND CONNECTIONS TO THE HOOD, INCLUDING THE |
| | DIMENSIONS OF THE DUCTS AND THE REQUIRED MINIMUM 18" |
| | CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES FOR THE GREASE DUCT. PLEASE |
| | NOTE IF FIREWRAPPING IS TO BE USED, THE DRAWING SHALL |
| | SHOW THE WRAPPING IN PLACE FROM OUTLET TO TERMINATION- |
| | SECTION 506.3.6. C) THE EXHAUST FAN AND EXHAUST OUTLET |
| | HEIGHT ABOVE THE FINISHED ROOF SURFACE- SECTION |
| | 506.3.13.1 |
| | |
| | 6) THE HOOD SHALL BE INSTALLED WITH NOT LESS THAN 18" |
| | CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES. BECAUSE THE HOOD IS ADJACENT |
| | TO THE WALL, IT IS REQUIRED THAT THE WALL BE OF |
| | NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION WITH WITH MINIMUM 1/2" |
| | THICK GYPSUM WALLBOARD OR CEMENTITIOUS WALL BOARD. IN |
| | ADDITION IT IS REQUIRED THAT A SMOOTH, CLEANABLE, |
| | NONABSORBENT AND NONCOMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL IS INSTALLED |
| | BETWEEN THE HOOD AND THE GYPSUM BOARD OVER AN AREA |
| | EXTENDING NOT LESS THAN 18 INCHES IN ALL DIRECTIONS |
| | FROM THE HOOD- SECTION 507.2.6. PLEASE REVISE THE PLANS |
| | TO SHOW COMPLIANCE. |
| | |
| | 7) SUBMIT MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICTIONS FOR THE GREASE |
| | EXHAUST FAN- SECTION 506.5.1. |
| | |
| | 8) PROVIDE WIND LOAD ENGINEERING FOR INSTALLATION OF |
| | THE EXHASUT FAN AND THE NEW 3-TON ROOFTOP AC UNIT- |
| | SECTION 301.15. |
| | |
| | |
| | WHEN RESUBMITTING, IT IS HELPFUL TO PROVIDE A RESPONSE |
