General Safety Information

Only qualied personnel should install this system. Personnel should have a clear understanding of these instructions and should be aware of general safety precautions. Improper installation can result in electric shock, possible injury due to coming in contact with moving parts, as well as other potential hazards. Other considerations may be required if high winds or seismic activity are present. If more information is needed, contact a licensed professional engineer before moving forward. 1. Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the National Electrical Code (NEC), the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA), where applicable. Follow the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and ULC-S650 in Canada. 2. The rotation of the fan wheel is critical. It must be free to rotate without striking or rubbing any stationary objects. 3. Fan motor must be securely and adequately grounded. 4. Do not spin fan wheel faster than maximum cataloged fan rpm. Adjustments to fan speed signicantly affects motor load. If the fan RPM is changed, the motor current should be checked to make sure it is not exceeding the motor nameplate amps. 5. Do not allow the power cable to kink or come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces or chemicals. Replace cord immediately if damaged. 6. Verify that the power source is compatible with the equipment. 7. Never open access doors to a duct while the fan is running.

DANGER
Always disconnect power before working on or near a fan. Lock and tag the disconnect switch or breaker to prevent accidental power up.
CAUTION
When servicing the fan, motor may be hot enough to cause pain or injury. Allow motor to cool before servicing.
CAUTION
Precaution should be taken in explosive atmospheres.
Receiving
Upon receiving the product, check to make sure all items are accounted for by referencing the packing list and ensuring all items were received. Inspect each crate for shipping damage before accepting delivery. Notify the carrier if any damage is noticed. The carrier will make notication on the delivery receipt acknowledging any damage to the product. All damage should be noted on all the copies of the bill of lading which is countersigned by the delivering carrier. A Carrier Inspection Report should be lled out by the carrier upon arrival and led with the Trafc Department. If damaged upon arrival, le claim with carrier. Any physical damage to the unit after acceptance is not the responsibility of Greenheck Fan Corporation.
portable electric heater to get rid of any moisture buildup. Leave coverings loose to permit air circulation and to allow for periodic inspection.
OUTDOOR - Units designed for outdoor applications

may be stored outdoors, if absolutely necessary. Roads or aisles for portable cranes and hauling equipment are needed. The unit should be placed on a level surface to prevent water from leaking into it. The unit should be elevated on an adequate number of wooden blocks so that it is above water and snow levels and has enough blocking to prevent it from settling into soft ground. Locate parts far enough apart to permit air circulation, sunlight, and space for periodic inspection. To minimize water accumulation, place all unit parts on blocking supports so that rain water will run off. Do not cover parts with plastic lm or tarps as these cause condensation of moisture from the air passing through heating and cooling cycles.
Unpacking
Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity of each item have been received. If any items are missing, report shortages to your local representative to arrange for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it is not possible that all items for the unit be shipped together due to availability of transportation and truck space. Conrmation of shipment(s) must be limited to only items on the bill of lading. Filters are shipped on a separate skid in their original packaging. Do not remove factory packaging or install lters until just prior to commissioning. Remove all other shipping/packing materials including fan tie down straps.
Inspection and Maintenance during Storage

While in storage, inspect fans once per month. Keep a record of inspection and maintenance performed. If moisture or dirt accumulations are found on parts, the source should be located and eliminated. At each inspection, rotate the fan wheel by hand ten to fteen revolutions to distribute lubricant on motor. Every three months, the fan motor should be energized. If paint deterioration begins, consideration should be given to touch-up or repainting. Fans with special coatings may require special techniques for touch-up or repair. Machined parts coated with rust preventive should be restored to good condition promptly if signs of rust occur. Immediately remove the original rust preventive coating with petroleum solvent and clean with lintfree cloths. Polish any remaining rust from surface with crocus cloth or ne emery paper and oil. Do not destroy the continuity of the surfaces. Wipe thoroughly clean with Tectyl 506 (Ashland Inc.) or the equivalent. For hard to reach internal surfaces or for occasional use, consider using Tectyl 511M Rust Preventive or WD-40 or the equivalent.
Handling
Units are to be rigged and moved by the lifting brackets provided or by the skid when a forklift is used. Location of brackets varies by model and size. Handle in such a manner as to keep from scratching or chipping the coating. Damaged nish may reduce ability of unit to resist corrosion.
Storage
Units are protected against damage during shipment. If the unit cannot be installed and operated immediately, precautions need to be taken to prevent deterioration of the unit during storage. The user assumes responsibility of the unit and accessories while in storage. The manufacturer will not be responsible for damage during storage. These suggestions are provided solely as a convenience to the user.
Removing from Storage

As units are removed from storage to be installed in their nal location, they should be protected and maintained in a similar fashion until the equipment goes into operation. Prior to installing the unit and system components, inspect the unit assembly to make sure it is in working order. Check all fasteners, set screws on the fan, wheel, bearings, drive, motor base, and accessories for tightness. Rotate the fan wheel(s), where applicable, by hand and assure no parts are rubbing.
INDOOR - The ideal environment for the storage of

units and accessories is indoors, above grade, in a low humidity atmosphere which is sealed to prevent the entry of blowing dust, rain, or snow. Temperatures should be evenly maintained between 30F (-1C) and 110F (43C). Wide temperature swings may cause condensation and sweating of metal parts. All accessories must be stored indoors in a clean, dry atmosphere. Remove any accumulations of dirt, water, ice, or snow and wipe dry before moving to indoor storage. To avoid sweating of metal parts, allow cold parts to reach room temperature. To dry parts and packages, use a

Installation
Wall or Single Island Style Hoods NOTE
If you have a back supply plenum (BSP), this must be installed before the hood. Please see page 5. The installation of the canopy hoods shall be in accordance with NFPA 96 (latest edition) Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations and ULC-S650 in Canada. Greenheck does not recommend walking or standing on the hood top as damage can result and may void the warranty. If you must walk on the hood top, protect the hood with additional support and planks for flooring. For wall/single island style hoods, prior to installation, check with local authorities having jurisdiction on clearances to combustible surfaces, etc. With the hood still inside its packing crate, position the unit beneath its installation location. Carefully remove the packing crate. Place some protective material on the oor next to the crate to avoid damaging the hood as it is tipped on its side. Tip the hood carefully onto the protective material. If you have ller panels, install them now; refer to page 5, Filler Panel Installation. If you have integral ller panels, no additional installation is needed.
Hanging the Hood

Before hanging the hood according to the hood installation instructions, please check the following if applicable: 1. Make sure the back supply plenum is properly secured, as described on page 5. 2. If the ductwork for the back supply will not interfere with the hood installation, it should be connected now. 3. Any ller panels should be attached to the hood before the hood installation. See page 5 for instructions. 4. Lift the hood, and position it so the ller panels are resting lightly on the top outside edges of the back supply. The back supply is used to position the hood only, it is not intended to hold any hood weight.

Exhaust Air Balancing Bafes (EABB)

This is a guide to assist in determining if multiple hoods on one fan can be balanced to have equal static pressure. For multiple hoods on one fan to achieve their designed exhaust ow, all of the hoods must have equal static pressure at their designed exhaust ow. The laws of physics force the static pressure for each branch of a duct system on one fan to always be equal. This will happen by the ow rate increasing in low static branches and decreasing in high static branches until the static pressure is equal in all branches. Checking for Balance Every hood with exhaust air balancing bafes (EABB) has a range for its static pressure. The low static pressure number (when EABB is open) in this range is given by the standard calculation for hood static and is printed on the CAPS submittal page for that hood. The high static pressure number (when EABB is closed) in this range can be found by calculating the maximum potential increase of static and adding that value to the low static pressure number. High static pressure number = low static pressure number + maximum increase The maximum potential increase in static is given in the graph, or can be calculated from the following formula: Maximum Increase = 0.00000036 x (Duct velocity)2

Kitchen Hoods Type I and Type II 11
Step 1: Find the hood with the lowest static pressure as shown on the CAPS submittal pages. Step 2: Calculate the high static pressure number for this hood as instructed above. Step 3: Compare this high static pressure number to the low static pressure number of the remaining hoods. If the remaining hoods low static pressure number is lower than the high static pressure number calculated, then the system can be balanced; if the low static pressure number is higher than the calculated high static pressure number, then the system cannot be balanced. Refer to the examples. Example 1: Hood 1: Ps = 0.58 in. wg Duct Velocity = 1900 ft/min. Hood 2: Ps = 0.44 in. wg Duct Velocity = 1800 ft/min.
B. To determine proper kitchen air balance: 1. Refer to engineering drawings to determine total exhaust from the kitchen area. (exhaust hoods, dishwasher hoods, etc.) 2. Determine total CFM of make-up air supplied to kitchen area. (make-up air hoods, heating and air conditioning units, etc.) 3. Subtract #1 from #2 above. The result should be a negative number. If the result is a positive number, a positive pressure is present in the kitchen area. Kitchen odors could be forced into the dining area. Also, a positively balanced kitchen area can adversely affect the performance of the exhaust hood.
CAUTION
According to NFPA 96, Ch. 8-3 Replacement Air: Replacement air quantity shall be adequate to prevent negative pressures in the commercial cooking area(s) from exceeding 4.98 kPa (0.02 in. wg).
Hood 2 has the lower Ps, at 1800 ft/min. the maximum increase in Ps is 1.17. The range for Hood 2 is 0.44 to 1.61. Hood 1 is less than 1.61 so these hoods can be balanced. Example 2: Hood 3: Ps = 2.00 in. wg Duct Velocity = 2000 ft/min. Hood 4: Ps = 0.44 in. wg Duct Velocity = 1500 ft/min.
NOTE
The airflow rates were established under controlled laboratory conditions.
NOTE
Greater exhaust and/or lesser supply air may be required for complete vapor and smoke control in specific installations.
Hood 4 has the lower Ps, at 1500 ft/min. the maximum increase in Ps is .81. The range for Hood 4 is 0.44 to 1.25. Hood 3 is higher than 1.25, so these hoods cannot be balanced.
Testing Hood Air Volume - Rotating Vane Method

Bafe Filter Style Hoods A. Exhaust: With all the lters in place, determine the total hood exhaust volume with a rotating vane anemometer as follows: 1. All cooking equipment should be on. 2. Measure the velocities. Velocity measurements should be taken at ve locations per lter. These must be over a lter slot as in Fig. 6.
Fig. 6
NOTE
For many systems, exhaust air balancing baffles may not be needed on the hood that has the highest static pressure. The exception to this is if the individual ductwork has uneven static pressures.
NOTE
When sizing the fan, use the static pressure from the highest hood and sum the CFM from all the hoods.
Balancing the Kitchen Exhaust System

A. To determine the proper dining room air balance: 1. Refer to engineering drawings to determine total exhaust CFM from dining areas. (exhaust fans, heating and air conditioning units, rest rooms, etc.) 2. Determine the total CFM of make-up air supplied to dining area. 3. Subtract #1 from #2 above. If the result is a negative number, a negative pressure is present in the dining area. In this case, kitchen exhaust odors could be drawn from the kitchen to the dining area. Therefore, exhaust or supply air should be adjusted to provide a slight positive pressure in the dining area.

Grease-X-Tractor High Efciency Filters or Grease Grabber Multi-Filtration System Shortridge Method
A. Exhaust With all the lters in place, determine the total hood exhaust volume with a Shortridge meter as follows: 1. All cooking equipment should be on. If the hood has internal short circuit make-up air, it should be turned off. 2. Measure velocities Set up the Shortridge meter. Leave all holes of VelGrid open. Do NOT tape over holes that are not over openings. The conversion factor takes this into account. For 20 in. (500 mm) high lters, position the grid as shown in Fig. 15 and 16. Average the two measurements. For 16 in. (400 mm) high lters position the grid as shown in Fig. 17. For 20 in. (500 mm) wide lters, position the grid over the left and right side of the lter. Average the two measurements. Take velocity readings for each lter. 3. Calculate each lters volumetric ow rate as follows: Calculate each lters average velocity by summing the velocity readings and dividing by the number of readings for each lter. Multiply the average velocity by the conversion factor to obtain the volumetric ow rate for each lter. 4. Calculate the hoods total volumetric ow rate by summing the volumetric ow rate of each individual lter in the hood as calculated in Step 3.

Testing Hood Air Volume - Rotating Vane Method

Short Circuit Hoods A. Supply All cooking equipment should be off. The hood exhaust should also be off. 1. Measure Velocities Velocity measurements should be made with a digital 2.75 in. (69.85 mm) rotating vane anemometer or its equivalent. One velocity measurement should be taken for every 8 in. (203.2 mm) of short circuit opening length, starting tight against one edge of the opening, and nishing tight against the other edge. The anemometer should be placed at the bottom edge of the opening, ush with the bottom lip. Both squareness and placement are important for accuracy. 2. Calculate the average slot velocity. 3. Calculate the volumetric ow rate per linear foot by dividing the average velocity by a conversion factor of 5.52 per ft. If metric units are used, divide the average velocity by a conversion factor of 1.68 per meter. 4. Calculate the hoods supply volume by multiplying the CFM per linear foot by the total hood length.
Example: 4 ft. (1.22 m) short circuit hood (36 inch (.914 m) short circuit opening
Number of readings = 36 in. / 8 in. => 6 readings (.914 m / .2 m => 6 readings)

Air Diffusers
The air diffusers, located at the bottom of the back supply will need to be cleaned as often as the application dictates. Inspect periodically to determine the cleaning schedule.
FIG. 17
Periodic Maintenance
1. Painted hood exterior surfaces should be cleaned with a mild detergent solution. 2. Stainless steel hood exterior surfaces should be cleaned with a mild detergent and then polished with a good grade stainless steel polish to preserve the original luster. Note: Never use abrasive cleaners or chemicals on hood surfaces. Never use chlorine based cleaners or iron wool pads to clean the hood. They may scratch or mar the material. Always rub with the grain of the stainless. 3. To maintain optimum performance of your hood and fan, duct cleaning should be performed as often as the application and code requires. 4. Recaulk the hoods with an NSF Approved silicone caulk, (GE SCS1009 or its equivalent) as needed. 5. Inspect the supply air discharge portion on external supply plenums to ensure the airstream is free from debris or other blockage.
REMOVABLE AIR DIFFUSERS
1. To clean the air diffusers, unfasten the screws. Remove the air diffusers from the back supply unit and wash in the sink or dishwasher. 2. Refasten with the stainless steel screws.
Condensate Hood Bafe Installation, Fig. 18 and 19

1. Grasp the bafe with drain holes facing down and lift into the hood. For short hoods with only one bafe it may be necessary to turn the bafe slightly diagonally to t it past the drain channel. 2. After the bafe clears the drain channel of the hood, turn the bafe so it is lined up with the upper hanger in the hood. 3. Hook the upper channel of the bafe over the upper hanger of the hood and set the lower edge of the bafe into the condensate gutter. Repeat until all bafes are installed in the hood. 4. Center the bafe from side to side in the hood.
Grease Grabber Filter Installation NOTE

Never install the second stage filter in the front filter channel. The second stage filter must be installed behind a UL Classified Grease-X-Tractor primary filter. 1. Slide the top edge of the second stage lter into the top rear lter channel; Fig. 20.
Fig. 20
2. Lifting the lower edge of the lter past the grease trough, continue to push the top of the lter into the channel. 3. When the lter is even with the bottom rear lter channel, set the lter into the channel; Fig. 21. 4. Slide the lter to one end of the hood and repeat until all the lters are installed. Make sure the lters are placed tightly together with no visible gaps.

Step 2 Remove the Grease Grabber lters, starting in the middle of the hood: (2A) grab the handles on either side and lift the lter up, (2B) pull the bottom of the lter toward yourself, (2C) lower the lter out of the hood. Repeat this process for each lter. The lters that are on the ends will have to be slid toward the middle and then lifted out.
- Each lter may be soaked in hot soapy water for two hours once a month prior to washing if grease buildup is found. - Test for grease build-up by running water through the lter. If water runs freely and no air gaps are in the beaded pack, the lter is in working condition. - Inspect the lters by holding it up to a light. Light shining through more than six holes in a group indicates lter damage. - For lter replacement, call 1-800-355-5354 Step 4 Replace Grease Grabber lters in hood. Do Step 2 in reverse order (2C, then 2B, then 2A). Step 5 Replace the front Grease-X-Tractor lters. Do Step 1 in reverse. Be sure to install lters in the ends of the hood rst, then install the lters in the middle of the hood (1B, then 1A).

Troubleshooting
Problem: Exhaust fan is not operating or is not operating at design levels.
Is the fan receiving power? Is the belt loose or broken? Is the fan rotating in correct direction? Is the make-up air operating? Does the airow need to be increased? Does the fan vibrate? Replace fuses, reset circuit breakers, check disconnect. Replace or tighten belt. Have the electrician correctly wire the fan. Problems with make-up air may interfere with the exhaust fan - check the manufacturers installation manual. Adjust or replace pulleys to increase fan RPM, install a larger motor. Clean the fan wheel/blade, replace fan wheel if damaged, check for loose bolts, check for broken or damaged components, check for rags and other foreign objects.
Problem: Hood is full of smoke. There is smoke coming out of the edges of the hood.
Is the fan operating at design levels? See exhaust fan troubleshooting section. Refer to test and balance report, design specications and fan curves; have an electrician check the motor amperage; try removing the lter temporarily to see if capture improves. (Make sure to replace lter to prevent risk of re!); switch to different lters with lower static pressure. Clean lters, replace damaged lters, properly position lters. Check make-up air unit, increase make-up air, make-up air should be evenly distributed throughout the kitchen.
Is the fan correctly sized?
Are the lters in good condition? Is there sufcient make-up air? (Kitchen should be in a slight negative but not excessive. Check to see if there is a strong draft through an open door). Does the current cooking equipment match the original design? Are there multiple hoods on one fan? Are there closed dampers in the duct? Is the ductwork complex or to small? Is the ductwork obstructed? Is this a short circuit hood?
Adjust or replace fan to match the cooking equipment load. One hood may be over exhausting and the other hood not drawing enough. Restrict second hood to help problem hood. Open dampers. Change to a higher static fan, modify the ductwork. Clear obstruction. Turn off or reduce the amount of air supplied to short circuit.
Problem: Smoke blows away before reaching the bottom of the hood.
Are there cooling fans directed at the hood or cooking equipment? Are there ceiling diffusers directing air at the hood? Are there open windows or doors? Turn off or redirect fans. Move diffusers to more neutral area or replace with a diffuser that directs air away from the hood. Close windows and doors. Find source of the draft and eliminate, add side skirts to hood (test with cardboard; use stainless for permanent side skirts); increase the amount of overhang on the spillage side; add a 6 in. (152.4 mm) lip around the base of the hood (test with cardboard; use stainless for permanent side skirts); make-up air should be spread out evenly through the kitchen. Add side skirts to hood (test with cardboard rst); increase the amount of overhang on spillage side. Adjust amount and locations of make-up air to eliminate drafts through the passthru windows. Turn off or reduce the amount of make-up air. Try turning off or reducing the amount of make-up air; block off portions of the supply to direct air away from the problem area (test with cardboard).
Are there cross drafts or other drafts in the kitchen?
Is the hood near a main walkway? Are there pass-thru windows near the hood? Is this an air curtain hood? Is the make-up air part of the hood or an attached plenum?
Troubleshooting
Problem: Pilot lights are being blown out or cooking equipment is being cooled by make-up air.
Are there drafts from make-up air? Try turning off or reducing the amount of make-up air; block off portions of the supply to direct air away from the problem area (test with cardboard rst); remove any obstructions in front of supply that directs air toward cooking equipment.
Problem: Cold air can be felt by the cook at the hood.

Is this a short circuit hood? Is this an air curtain hood? Is the make-up air part of the hood or an attached plenum? Turn off or reduce the amount of air supplied to short circuit. Turn off or reduce the amount of air supplied to the air curtain; heat the supply air. Try turning off or reducing the amount of make-up air; heat the supply air.
Problem: The kitchen gets hot.

Is the hood capturing? Is this an air curtain hood? Is the make-up air part of the hood or an attached plenum? Hood is not drawing enough air, see sections above on fan performance and hood capture. Turn off or reduce the amount of air supplied to the air curtain. Try turning off or reducing the amount of make-up air; cool the supply air.
Problem: Cooking odors in the dining area.

Is the hood capturing? Is there a draft through doors between the kitchen and dining area? Hood is not drawing enough air, see sections above on fan performance and hood capture. Decrease make-up air in the kitchen; increase exhaust air through hood.
Problem: Grease is running off the hood.

Is there grease on top of the hood? Is the caulk missing or damaged? Is the grease cup inserted properly? Exhaust duct is not correctly welded. Clean problem area and recaulk. Put grease cup back in place.
Problem: Hood is noisy.

Is the fan running in the correct direction? Are the lters in place? Is the hood over exhausting? See exhaust fan troubleshooting section. Replace missing lters. Slow down fan (see exhaust fan troubleshooting section)
Before calling your manufacturers representative to report a problem, have the following information available: 1. Review / summary of troubleshooting section in installation operation manual. 2. Hood model and serial number. 3. Current cooking equipment line-up. 4. Size of hood (length, width and height). 5. Island or wall conguration. 6. Multiple hoods on one fan. 7. Nature of spillage (one end; all around the edges). 8. Does the smoke make it to the hood? 9. Height hood is mounted above nished oor. 10. How make-up air is brought into the kitchen (hood, ceiling diffusers, separate plenum). 11. Is exhaust system controlled by a variable volume system? 12. Is the fan noisy? 13. Photos of the issue/problem may be helpful.
