OPERATION OF SYSTEM
1. After installation is complete, it will be necessary to check and balance the airflows. On the Capture Jet
®
line of
hoods, Halton supplies T.A.B. (Testing And Balancing) ports for measuring the pressure drop through the filters
and the Capture Jet
®
plenum pressure. These ports are located on the inside of the capture portion of the canopy
on the exhaust and Capture Jet
®
plenums.
For details on their use (see pg. 14).
**It is very important that the fan for the Capture Jet
®
air be balanced according to specifications.
See the job specific information for required airflows. The Capture Jet fan is adjusted at the factory for proper
airflow. Check the static pressure of the Capture Jet plenum and adjust the Capture Jet fan speed only if the
pressure reading is different than the T.A.B. port pressure specified on the job specific submittal drawings.
Adjustments to the Capture Jet
®
fan can be made with the speed controller supplied with the fan. This speed
controller will be mounted inside the Capture Jet plenum, on top of the hood, or mounted in an electrical
enclosure. The submittal drawings will detail the location of the speed controller(s).
Information regarding the fan and speed controller (see pg. 12).
2. Halton Capture Jet Hoods are equipped with efficient model KSA grease filters. Each Halton Capture Jet
®
hood
system will have a KSA Filter Remover (model KFR) included with the hood package. The “KFR” will be packaged
separately inside the hood. The box will be labeled “Attn: Kitchen Mgr. “. Model KFR instructions are found on
(pg. 15). The KFR will assist in removal and replacement of the filters for cleaning and maintenance.
3. After the exhaust and supply airflows have been properly balanced, a final inspection should be made to
ensure proper system operation.
HOOD MAINTENANCE
1. Clean the hood canopy inside and out as needed with mild soap and water. Never use harsh or abrasive
cleaners on Stainless Steel or Painted surfaces, making sure to wipe clean all interior and exterior
surfaces of the hood including the light fixtures.
** Never clean the hood canopy when any of the surfaces are hot.
2. Clean the grease filters and grease cup(s) daily, first washing by hand, and then placing them into a dishwasher
or by steam cleaning.
** Handle the Grease filters carefully **
