Deli or Bakery Exhaust Is Being Treated Like Ordinary Exhaust

This deli exhaust is being staged as ordinary galvanized duct, but I checked the hood tag and equipment lineup and cannot confirm the approved exhaust classification. Can we verify the hood submittal and duct construction before this run is installed?

Stop if

Stop before changing specialty exhaust, fire/life-safety work, shutdown conditions, controls, structural support, waterproofing, manufacturer-specific requirements, or occupied-space protection without the responsible direction.

Watch out

Do not assume every bakery hood is grease duct or every deli exhaust is ordinary galvanized duct.

Check

current drawings and affected system tags
grid/location and measured conditions
photos showing the conflict or temporary condition
relevant equipment, hood, controls, roofing, or store information
what has already been checked
