What requirements does Environmental Healths Consumer Health Protection Division have concerning exhaust hoods and grease traps?
Environmental Health’s ordinances address the issue of maintenance of such equipment not the need for, or design of these types of equipment installations. Such issues are addressed by criteria contained in the Uniform Mechanical and Uniform Plumbing Codes respectively. Additionally, some hood installations may require additional features, which are necessary to meet Albuquerque Fire Department criteria.
