Using the cargo dividers was a genius move. It doesn’t hurt the pocket too bad. I did that yesterday and installed my hood. Thanks for the video.

Duct should be welded not screwed together.. hood should be mounted to back of wall tightly sealed to prevent grease from buildup and possibly fire

I am really not wanting to instal a good in my trailer, I’m not even cooking food I just have food warmers. Might have to fork out the cash and bite this bullet though lol. Think I’m going to rearrange the trailer and cook if I have to.
@poormansfoodtruck Жыл бұрын
Depending on your area the health dept may not require you to have one if you’re not physically cooking inside the trailer. But to my knowledge if you do decide to start cooking instead of just warmers, you’ll for sure need one! Hope that I can help if it comes to that!

Have you had any experience with the low profile hoods? They are designed for low ceiling areas. Any opinions about those? Seems like they give you more head room while cooking..
@poormansfoodtruck11 ай бұрын
Personally I’ve not had any experience with them - but I will say that they look great! They’re also probably much easier to install and easier to maintain also. In my area at least, I’ve never seen one in action (yet).

@poormansfoodtruck Жыл бұрын
For me, I won’t be using an AC unit (too much electrical power is required). I’m sure that you could, however it may be easier to raise your equipment a little higher, than to lower the exhaust hood?
@frankwerner9698 Жыл бұрын
@Poor Man's Food Truck the reason I thought to lower the hood was to catch the heat before it is all over the rig. More efficient? Just speculating a posible design improvement.
