| 2022-03-17 12:06:45 | THIS PLAN WAS REVIEWED AND FAILED BY PETER LEDUC, FIRE |
| | MARSHAL, WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1) NOW THAT THE SPECIFIC LOCATION HAS BEEN PROVIDED IT |
| | APPEAR TO BE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE GENERATOR AIR |
| | INTAKE WHICH MAY INDUCE HEATED AND TOXIC EXHAUST GAS |
| | BACK INTO THE GENERATOR. |
| | |
| | THE CONTINUED RUN LENGTH OF THE GENERATOR WITH CONSTANT |
| | HEATED EXHAUST MAY RENDER HIGHT TEMPAURATIRE AND |
| | RESULTANT FAILURE OF THE SYSTEM. |
| | |
| | PER NFPA 37 |
| | |
| | 8.2.3 EXHAUST SYSTEM TERMINATION. |
| | 8.2.3.1* EXHAUST SYSTEMS SHALL TERMINATE OUTSIDE THE |
| | STRUCTURE |
| | AT A POINT WHERE HOT GASES, SPARKS, OR PRODUCTS OF |
| | COMBUSTION |
| | WILL DISCHARGE TO A SAFE LOCATION. |
| | |
| | A.8.2.3.1 EXHAUST SYSTEMS SHOULD NOT TERMINATE UNDER |
| | STRUCTURES |
| | (INCLUDING LOADING PLATFORMS) OR WHERE EXHAUST GAS |
| | ENTRAINMENT |
| | INTO VENTILATION INTAKES MIGHT OCCUR. |
| | |
| | 7.7 HEATING, COOLING, AND VENTILATING. |
| | 7.7.1* WITH THE EPS RUNNING AT RATED LOAD, VENTILATION |
| | AIRFLOW |
| | SHALL BE PROVIDED TO LIMIT THE MAXIMUM AIR TEMPERATURE |
| | IN THE |
| | EPS ROOM OR THE ENCLOSURE HOUSING THE UNIT TO THE |
| | MAXIMUM |
| | AMBIENT AIR TEMPERATURE REQUIRED BY THE EPS |
| | MANUFACTURER. |
| | |
| | PER NFPA 110 |
| | |
| | 7.10 EXHAUST SYSTEM. |
| | 7.10.1 THE EXHAUST SYSTEM EQUIPMENT AND INSTALLATION, |
| | INCLUDING |
| | PIPING, MUFFLER, AND RELATED ACCESSORIES, SHALL BE IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH NFPA37, STANDARD FOR THE INSTALLATION |
| | AND USE OF |
| | STATIONARY COMBUSTION ENGINES AND GAS TURBINES, AND |
| | OTHER APPLICABLE |
| | STANDARDS. |
| | 7.10.2 EXHAUST SYSTEM INSTALLATION SHALL BE GASTIGHT TO |
| | PREVENT |
| | EXHAUST GAS FUMES FROM ENTERING INHABITED ROOMS OR |
| | BUILDINGS |
| | AND TERMINATE IN SUCH A MANNER THAT TOXIC FUMES CANNOT |
| | REENTER A BUILDING OR STRUCTURE, PARTICULARLY THROUGH |
| | WINDOWS, |
| | AIR VENTILATION INLETS, OR THE ENGINE AIR-INTAKE |
| | SYSTEM. |
| | |
| | |
| | IT APPEARS THAT THE EXHAUST IS LOCATED WITHIN 5' TO 10' |
| | OF THE GENERATOR AIR INTAKE AND THE OPENING INTO THE |
| | PARKING GARAGE ON THE SAME WALL. |
| | |
| | THIS LOCATION APPEARS TO CONFLICT WITH THE CODE AND |
| | INTENT FOR A REMOTE EXHAUST LOCATION. |
| | |
| | THE PROVIDED MANUFACTURE'S SPECIFICATION SHEETS DO NOT |
| | INDICATE A RECOMMENDED DISTANCE. |
| | |
| | PLEASE REVIEW AND PROVIDE A DETAILED REVIEW OF THE |
| | DISTANCE FROM THE EHAUST TO BOTH THE GENERATOR AIR |
| | INTAKE AND THE OPENEING TO THE GARAGE |
| | CONTAINED IN THE MANUFACTURE'S INSTALLATION |
| | SPECIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS AND/OR REQUIREMENTS. |
| | |
| | PLEASE INDICATE HOW THIS INSTALLATION MEETS THOSE |
| | REQUIRMENTS AND THE NFPA CODES. |
| | |
| | |
| | 2) WHEN RESUBMITTING, PLEASE PROVIDE PLAN SHEET |
| | REVISION CLOUDS OR NUMBERED NARRATIVE RESPONSES TO THE |
| | ABOVE. |
| | |
| | |
| | 3) ADDITIONAL COMMENTS MAY BE PROVIDED ON THE |
| | RE-SUBMITTAL OF THE ABOVE. |
