Risks during exhaust air operation
WARNING
Risk of suffocation/explosion!
The air in the room where the exhaust
hood is operating is extracted by fan
and released outside. If, in this room,
a fi replace requiring indoor air – such
as a gas fi re or other fuel-based heat-
ing system – is also in use, the oxygen
that is necessary for combustion may
also be extracted. This can result in
the fl ame being extinguished and gas
being released or the room becoming
saturated with exhaust fumes.
