Hello,
Really just looking for options/opinions here:
Restaurant wants to install two food heating lamps (such as these) within their existing bar constructed of wood. It would go between two of the shelves and they have said they will install stainless steel all around the lamps to shield the heat. I am not certain the stainless steel will adequately provide the protection because it is still attached to the bar made of wood. I know 305.1 requires a clearance between ignition sources and combustible materials, so I may just use that and tell them it is not going to work within the bar.
Anyone have any other thoughts?
Ohio Fire Code 2011, which primarily uses IFC 2009. Building is a mixed-use 1-story (with basements), Type III fully suppressed building.
Thanks!
