Exhaust Fan Hinge Kits are necessary to bring your fan up to NFPA #96 fire code standards. They will help prevent costly damage to your exhaust fan, your roof membrane and your electrical wiring. They will also provide easy access for total cleaning and inspections.
Unfortunately, exhaust fan maintenance can be tricky. These fans are heavy, awkward, and difficult to move. Weather can also play a factor when moving the fans as well. That’s why National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 96 fire codes require an exhaust fan hinge kit for rooftop ventilators. In code 8.1.1.1 it specifically states that “approved up-blast fans with motors surrounded by the airstream shall be hinged.” Not to mention, a hinged exhaust fan is safer and easier to clean.
This is the least expensive option. The L-Bar design keeps the fan open without chains. Installation requires 2 to 3 inches of space on the back or side of the curb. This option is available for standard and over-sized exhaust fans and comes with a one-year warranty.
This is the most durable and reliable exhaust fan hinge kit available. Extend the life of your new fan with the Heavy Duty Hinge Kit….. complete with lifetime warranty.
