Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual
Please read and save these instructions for future reference. Read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate or maintain the product described. Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure to comply with instructions could result in personal injury and/or property damage!
Type IIType I
General Safety Information
Only qualified 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.
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.
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 significantly 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.

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 notification 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 filled out by the carrier upon arrival and filed with the Traffic Department. If damaged upon arrival, file claim with carrier. Any physical damage to the unit after acceptance is not the responsibility of Greenheck Fan Corporation.
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. Confirmation 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 filters until just prior to commissioning. Remove all other shipping/packing materials including fan tie down straps.
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 finish 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.
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 30°F (-1°C) and 110°F (43°C). 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
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 film or tarps as these cause condensation of moisture from the air passing through heating and cooling cycles.
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 fifteen 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 fine 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
Removing from Storage
As units are removed from storage to be installed in their final 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,
• Rotate the fan wheel(s), where applicable, by hand

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 floor 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 filler panels, install them now; refer to page 5, Filler Panel Installation. If you have integral filler 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 filler 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 filler 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.

Hood Installation Overview
If a back supply plenum is provided, install it first. Before raising the hood, insert 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) diameter threaded rod (by others) into hanger brackets on hood top. Check the engineering drawings or UL label located on the inside of the hood for proper hood height above finished floor. Install filler panels if needed. Raise and hang the hood from adequate roof or ceiling supports All hanger brackets must be used and the hood must be properly supported while lifting to prevent damage or distortion to the hood. The hood must be hung level to operate properly. After the hood is secured, make the exhaust duct connections. The fire system distributor must be contacted at this time. After the fire system has been installed, mount the enclosures, then the supply plenums. If a horizontal supply plenum is provided, it should be installed before the enclosures. Finally, make the electrical connections from the switches to the fans and complete the fire system circuits as required by the job specification.
5. Connect the remaining ductwork for the back supply and the hood. It is recommended that caulk be applied at the mating seams and surfaces of the back supply, the hood, and the wall.
6. If the hood is equipped with clearance reduction methods, refer to page 8 for special considerations with hanging the hood.

Exhaust Air Balancing Baffles (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 flow, all of the hoods must have equal static pressure at their designed exhaust flow.
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 flow 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 baffles (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)

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 hood’s 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.
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.
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.
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
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).
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.
Testing Hood Air Volume - Rotating Vane Method
Baffle Filter Style Hoods
A. Exhaust:
With all the filters 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 five locations per filter. These must be over a filter slot as in Fig. 6.
Fig. 6
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.

Testing Hood Air Volume - Shortridge Method
Baffle Filter Style Hoods
A. Exhaust:
With all the filters 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.
For 20 in. (500 mm) wide filters, position the
grid as shown in Fig. 7 and 8. Average the two measurements.
For 16 in. (400 mm) wide filters position the grid as
shown in Fig. 9.
Take velocity readings for each filter.
3. Calculate each filter’s volumetric flow rate as follows:
Calculate each filter’s average velocity by summing
the velocity readings and dividing by the number of readings for each filter.
Multiply the average velocity by the conversion factor
to obtain the volumetric flow rate for each filter.
4. Calculate the hood’s total volumetric flow rate by summing the volumetric flow rate of each individual filter in the hood as calculated in Step 3.
NOTE
For best accuracy multiply the velocity of each filter by its conversion factor and sum the flow rates. Averaging the velocity measured for all filters may cause error.

Method
A. Exhaust
With all the filters in place, determine the total hood exhaust volume with a rotating vane anemometer 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.
Velocity measurements should be taken at three
locations per filter. These must be over the inlet opening as shown in Fig. 10.
Measure the velocity of each location. A digital
2.75 in. (69.85 mm) rotating vane anemometer or its equivalent is suggested. The center of the anemometer should be held 2 in. (50.8 mm) from the face of the filters as in Fig. 11. It is helpful to make brackets to keep the anemometer at the 2 in. (50.8 mm) distance and parallel to the filter. Both squareness and distance are important for accuracy.
3. Calculate the average slot velocity.
4. Calculate the CFM per linear foot by dividing the average velocity by a conversion factor listed in the following table.
5. Calculate each filter’s volumetric flow rate in CFM by multiplying the average velocity for each filter by the conversion factor.

High Velocity Cartridge Filters - Shortridge Meter
A. Exhaust
With all the filters 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.
Position the grid over each filter. Refer to Fig. 12
• Take velocity readings for each filter.
3. Calculate each filter’s volumetric flow rate as follows:
Calculate each filter’s average velocity by summing
the velocity readings and dividing by the number of readings for each filter.
Multiply the average velocity by the conversion factor
to obtain the volumetric flow rate for each filter.
4. Calculate the hood’s total volumetric flow rate by summing the volumetric flow rate of each individual filter in the hood as calculated in Step 3.
NOTE
For best accuracy multiply the velocity of each filter by its conversion factor and sum the flow rates. Averaging the velocity measured for all filters may cause error.

Grease-X-Tractor™ High Efficiency Filters or Grease Grabber™ Multi-Filtration System Rotating Vane Method
A. Exhaust
With all the filters in place, determine the total hood exhaust volume with a rotating vane anemometer as follows:
1. All cooking equipment should be off. If the hood has internal short circuit make-up air, it should be turned off.
2. Measure velocities
Measurement should be taken at six locations per
filter. They must be over the inlet opening as shown in Fig. 13.
Measure the velocity of each location. A digital
2.75 in. (69.85 mm) rotating vane anemometer or its equivalent is suggested. The center of the anemometer should be held 2 in. (50.8 mm) from the face of the filters as in Fig. 14. It is helpful to make brackets to keep the anemometer at the 2 in. (50.8 mm) distance and parallel to the filter. Both squareness and distance are important for accuracy.
3. Calculate the average velocity for the filter.
4. Determine the filter’s conversion factor from the table.
5. Calculate each filter’s volumetric flow rate in CFM by multiplying the average velocity for each filter by the conversion factor.

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 finishing tight against the other edge. The anemometer should be placed at the bottom edge of the opening, flush with the bottom lip. Both squareness and placement are important for accuracy.
2. Calculate the average slot velocity.
3. Calculate the volumetric flow 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)

Maintenance
FIG. 17
REMOVABLE AIR DIFFUSERS
Daily Maintenance
1. Wipe grease from exposed metal surfaces on the hood interior using a clean, dry cloth.
2. Visually inspect the filters or cartridges for grease accumulation.
3. Remove grease cup, empty contents and replace cup.
Weekly Maintenance
1. Remove the grease filters or cartridges and wash in dishwasher or pot sink.
Note: Filters installed over heavy grease
producing equipment may require more frequent cleaning. See Filter Washing Frequency Guide, page 28.
2. Before replacing filters, clean the interior plenum surfaces of any residual grease accumulations.
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.
Condensate Hood Baffle Installation, Fig. 18 and 19
1. Grasp the baffle with drain holes facing down and lift into the hood. For short hoods with only one baffle it may be necessary to turn the baffle slightly diagonally to fit it past the drain channel.
2. After the baffle clears the drain channel of the hood, turn the baffle so it is lined up with the upper hanger in the hood.
3. Hook the upper channel of the baffle over the upper hanger of the hood and set the lower edge of the baffle into the condensate gutter. Repeat until all baffles are installed in the hood.
4. Center the baffle from side to side in the hood.

- Remove filters from hood and place each filter in a whirlpool sink or dishwasher.
- If using a whirlpool sink, cycle for 10 minutes. Use standard dish wash soap. (3A)
- If using a dishwasher, cycle it three times to ensure all grease is removed. (3B)
- If using standard sink, cover with hot water and degreaser and soak for two hours. Rinse after soaking.

NOTE
For hoods with large quantities of filters, it is acceptable to wash three to four filters each day, cycling all of the filters in three days.
NOTE
The beads will discolor. Standard cooking will turn the beads yellow in color. Open flame cooking will cause the beads to blacken. Neither affects the performance of the filters.
Periodic Inspection
- Inspect filter fasteners. Verify they are not loose or missing.
- Each filter 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 filter. If water runs freely and no air gaps are in the beaded pack, the filter is in working condition.
- Inspect the filters by holding it up to a light. Light shining through more than six holes in a group indicates filter damage.
- For filter replacement, call 1-800-355-5354
Step 4 Replace Grease Grabber™ filters in hood. Do
Step 2 in reverse order (2C, then 2B, then 2A).
Step 5 Replace the front Grease-X-Tractor filters. Do
Step 1 in reverse. Be sure to install filters in the ends of the hood first, then install the filters 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? Replace fuses, reset circuit breakers, check disconnect.
Is the belt loose or broken? Replace or tighten belt.
Is the fan rotating in correct direction? Have the electrician correctly wire the fan.
Is the make-up air operating?
Does the airflow need to be increased? Adjust or replace pulleys to increase fan RPM, install a larger motor.
Does the fan vibrate?
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.
Is the fan correctly sized?
Are the filters in good condition? Clean filters, replace damaged filters, properly position filters.
Is there sufficient 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? Open dampers.
Is the ductwork complex or to small? Change to a higher static fan, modify the ductwork.
Is the ductwork obstructed? Clear obstruction.
Is this a short circuit hood? Turn off or reduce the amount of air supplied to short circuit.
Problems with make-up air may interfere with the exhaust fan - check the manufacturer’s installation manual.
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.
Refer to test and balance report, design specifications and fan curves; have an electrician check the motor amperage; try removing the filter temporarily to see if capture improves. (Make sure to replace filter to prevent risk of fire!); switch to different filters with lower static pressure.
Check make-up air unit, increase make-up air, make-up air should be evenly distributed throughout the kitchen.
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.
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? Close windows and doors.
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? Turn off or reduce the amount of make-up air.
Is the make-up air part of the hood or an attached plenum?
Turn off or redirect fans.
Move diffusers to more neutral area or replace with a diffuser that directs air away from the hood.
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 first); increase the amount of overhang on spillage side.
Adjust amount and locations of make-up air to eliminate drafts through the pass­thru windows.
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).
