Last year one of my fine industrial food service units built a new 3 level building. After the general design they decided to add a cafeteria, thus the builder built multi horizontal runs going all over the place sealed and fire coded. The builder put all the access door on the bottom of the horz. Before the unit was signed off I showed my customer the obvious problem. The builder just took a short cut and I made him look like a fool among other things.
Cleaning time came up and the doors leak big time. We plan to put in 6 fire doors on the side before the next cleaning in 180 days. The building for what ever reason is not making a issue with the builder, thus any ideas on how to seal the doors??????????
The builder and the Air people state that this complies with the Mechanical Code and they could care less about NFPA97. But common sense must win and some point.
Thanks
