A kitchen project specifies 10,000 cfm of exhaust. An approved design revision adds a separate 5,000 cfm exhaust load to that total. What is the revised total specified exhaust airflow?
- 15,000 CFM
- B20,000 CFM
- C25,000 CFM
- D30,000 CFM
Where to look it up
Explicit exercise assumptions; not a universal code requirement.
Why A is correct
The revised total is 10,000 + 5,000 = 15,000 cfm. The added load is an explicit project assumption, not a universal code requirement. Equipment selection and makeup-air design require separate review.
