What do you do?

[Just John]

High School home economics classes want to do ethnic food lessons. They want to use woks and maybe fondue. They said it would be about 4 times a year. Not a Type I hood. What would you do in your jurisdiction?

In South Carolina the State Fire Marshal and Office of School Facilities are the AHJ's.

Ask for a few more fire extinguishers

Maybe one good size one by each stove

Also have them to extinguisher use class before cooking students included

 

[gbhammer]

It's nice that they were up front about it, but without a permanent piece of equipment I do not see how you can enforce much. IMO what cda suggest is about the most you can do or hope for.

 

[RJJ]

I have to go with cda on this one!

 

[mtlogcabin]

Also have them to extinguisher use class before cooking students included

That ought to be a requirement for all home ec classes in every school

Had the new high school install type I hoods.

 

[fatboy]

I'd go with cda on this one also......

I'll chime in with the majority and agree with cda.
