Hood, Grease Duct, and Make-Up-Air Connections Do Not Align

The hood, grease-duct riser, and make-up-air connection do not line up. I measured all three from the same grid and elevation references and checked the current submittals. Do you want the system re-coordinated before any field offset or connection change is made?

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 pull the hood, duct, or equipment connection into alignment or build an unapproved offset just because the ends are close.

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
