Once again great info/insight. Though it made me think.
What if you have a type II hood without wet chem protection? Are sprinklers required? I think yes (following obstruction rules). To take it a step further, what if you have a type I hood with protection over the required appliances including the plenum but not below the plenum in areas where there are ovens/non-cooking equipment? As an AHJ, I have never required additional protection here. But now I question myself. Posted anonymously for discussion. Discuss This | Submit Your Question | Subscribe

I recently went through this. IFC says that it has to be protected by an automatic system, but it doesn't specify one over the other or prohibit. It can be wet chem, dry chem, water based, or clean agent. Leave a Reply. |
