Almost identical as mine. I welded 2x1" steel tubing inside and used 1 roof beam that was my 4th piece and made my own duct only about 5" high. Used # 10 ss hex bolts-washers to hold, mount Hood inside to 3 studs on back and 2 studs on roof.

Hi I’m guiding myself to construct my food truck and your videos have been helping me understand a little bit more each time. I have a QUESTION! How can I know what type or witch exhaust fan I should use the one I need ??

@joannevans9629 Год назад

You're the best! Thank you so much for doing these videos. I have learned a TON. I have a question. I am thinking to simply do/use a Panini press for sandwiches. Will I need a fume hood for this equipment? I am in Colorado. I do not see anything in the regulation that spells that out. I understand that the Panini press has a collection tray for any fats that could flow out or down. Thanks in advance!

@rummy98 2 года назад

Instead of silicone which will fail in a few years, use butyl instead. You can usually get it in rolls from a metal roof supplier. I've removed roofs that were 20+ years old and the butyl is still in good shape and pliable. It can be molded and placed under and around washer/bolts and will smash into the threads and any holes when compressed. Been using for that purpose for years and haven't had any leaks.

@harmony7377 Год назад

Good info!!! Thanks

@SomebodyPickaName 4 месяца назад

Rummy for the win! Thanks man! I was thinking about this exact type of thing but I had no idea what it was called. I appreciate it! Btw, to others looking, I found a 20 foot roll on Amazon of butyl sealant tape for about $24.

@bryantoth78 2 года назад

I love your videos thank you so much for doing them.. I'm also building a trailer and I have the same style ceiling is what you have and I was wondering how I was going to attach a square Hood and something like that. Seeing how you have them put the 45 on it will be a big benefit for me as well. My question is what were those jacks that you used to hold it up? Where did you get those? Those would be so handy.

@fbaltierrez 2 года назад

Don't know if you bought them yet but if not these are the ones. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002RL8ODK/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B002RL8ODK&linkCode=as2&tag=rollingburrit-20&linkId=cb82312aa8e0e51572af376383eb76a5

@willismosby2799 Год назад

Hey, frank thanks for all the help. Hey did you drop the hood to get the bolts on to hold down the plate for the fan?

@dw1284 Год назад

Great videos frank. Question? Why wouldnt you use a seal tught connector on the roof side also instead of silicone or flex seal. I would think it will create a roof leak over time in that small hole.

@steveluepke9654 2 года назад

Hi.Frank. I was looking back at your list of the cost to build a food from the first build and I noticed you had listed I believe $532 for the 3vcompartment sink but in you link to Amazon they are listed at $832. Have they gone up that much? Thanks

@christiandavolio7233 2 года назад

Hey frank, thanks for the videos. I just got my hood in from hoodmart and am installing it tomorrow. Mine has brackets on it for mounting it is a 12 ft hood with electrical on top with only 2 brackets on each end and they don't line up with studs not to sure if you have ran into this before. Thanks!

@fbaltierrez 2 года назад

That's a big hood. Don't know what you mean by 2 brackets

@christiandavolio7233 2 года назад

@@fbaltierrez it was a beast to put up. the electrical for the lights were mounted on the top of the hood so it could not be flush on the ceiling and when I purchased it I chose hanging brackets installed. I had a buddy weld some 2" square tubing up top and it went up no problem.

@CamerieriZeppoleMix Год назад

As union IBEW electrician I would use electrical tape the switch attached near the fan and black tape potentiometer (dimmer) and wire nuts. Things I’ll get loose because it’s a moving vehicle

@guidononya7368 2 года назад

Those large hood bolts going through the roof. I would have used thick rubber washers underneath the fender washers. So you won't get leaks.And instead of using flex seal, I would have used mobile home roof sealer. It's a silver seal paint you use a roller to apply.

@fbaltierrez 2 года назад

I'll have to try those rubber washers next time. Thanks for that tip

@umairiqbal1916 Год назад

Hey Frank , Dude you did a phenomenal job explaining the whole hood installation process, which is the reason I was able to do it myself. My question is why did you never mention that you have to order the fire suppression system with the hood from the hoodmart when you order the hood because I just called today to order the fire suppression system from hoodmart but shockingly they do not sell the fire suppression system by itself , you have to order it with the hood and it comes pre installed.

Hi Frank thank you for your amazing video bro. Can you help me with this: i have a single-speed exhaust fan and it goes much faster than i need, can i use a motor speed control "Vari-Speed" as yours to control it? My exhaust fan is : 115 V, 3 A. wiring is straight forward: from my input wires, one black (line), one white(neutral) and one green (ground), they are connected in the same order and color to my fan. So in order to add a "Vari-Speed" in between, which means i just connect the my black from the input to one red from the knob, and another red from the knob to the black of the fan? Make sense? Please show me Frank or anyone with that knowledge, thank you all.

@fbaltierrez 9 месяцев назад

To be honest I would not know the answer to this. I just use the kit that comes from hoodmart as is. It's a variable motor switch. I'm assuming guessing since yours is single speed it won't work. But that is a guess

@mauriciocondo7540 Год назад

How are you friend , I have another question to fasten the smoke extractor up on the roof to the base, did you use screws or bolts with a nut and what number?

@diegobamtz8096 2 года назад

hello good day, thanks for your videos and tips. Right now I am remodeling a trailer, but I have many doubts about the hood. My trailer is small and is about 6' 4" tall, more or less, and I can't find a small and not-so-tall hood. Could you help me by telling me where I can get a not-too-tall hood and what size should I have? trailer?

@fbaltierrez Год назад

I wouldn't know where to find something like that unfortunately. I have only used Hood Mart. These are somewhat small only 30 inches tall.

@stevestraley1629 7 месяцев назад

Once you put the fan housing on the roof how did it fasten to the flanges? Thanks

@fbaltierrez 7 месяцев назад

Hey bro when you wire the fan on the roof did you screw you ground to the box?

@SomebodyPickaName 4 месяца назад

Hey Frank, I have a question: I had made a comment but then deleted it because I actually thought more about it and wasn't sure, so I wanted to ask you first: If that square duct was cut shorter, would it have fit the hole without having to make the hole 1/4" bigger? It seems like the hole was cut bigger, then the duct was cut shorter later. I'm wondering if those two steps were reversed, would you have been able to fit the duct in, due to not having to go at such an angle, with it being shorter? Or am I going to run into the same issue regardless?

@fbaltierrez 4 месяца назад

That's a tough one, I know with the other I cut, I used that angle to my advantage and made it fit more flush. But took a few to get it lol

@kristyalumbaugh3303 2 года назад

Hi Frank, what do you do with the ground wire up on the roof when wiring the fan?

@fbaltierrez 2 года назад

@umairiqbal1916 Год назад

Hey Frank 👋🏾,,, what did you do with the green wire in the speed dial ??

@fbaltierrez Год назад

You can connect it to the box, or the switch has a little green screw or wire that can be attached too

@caseymctavish3114 Месяц назад

So I ran a 12/2 wire to the hood switch and cannot really pull another wire through. Could I just wire nut both red wires on the 1 hot wire?
