Does anybody else hate squirrel cage fans???

I don't know maybe it's just me but I really think that squirrel cage fans for grease exhaust systems are a BAD IDEA.

They seem to be pretty common in So Cal. I see them everywhere as i drive around doing bids.


I am wondering if anyone else else around the US runs into places like the ones in the photos??????

I have more like the ones shown below but these were the best (worst).

Does anyone else fell the way I do or am I just crazy????

These people aren't even my customers thank god!:rolleyes:

I think they are like anything else, if they are mantained they are nt so bad. Assuming they have a drain so you don't have to use a vacuum to get the water out, I hate those.
 
Matt said these were your after shots or were they the Echo Labs after shots.

Gary at Flame Gard will fix you up.

Do you have any idea how many times I have said " if the guys who install them only knew"? I should have in the next few days some pictures of a McDonalds fan that is welded down and a McDonalds fryer that is installed with metal brackets welded in place so you can't get you can't move the fryer out at all. HMMMMMM
 
I think that sometimes these fans are installed with as little cost as possible without regard for cleaning & maintenance.

Bryan - can't wait to see the photos of the Mc D's.

Nice to know that I am not the only one out there thinking about these things.
