Section 35.133. Fire protection

The following recommendations apply to fire protection:

(1) Ducts longer than 10 feet should have clean-out doors at 10 foot intervals, or should be so constructed as to be easily taken apart for cleaning.

(2) To minimize the spread of fire, finished products should be removed immediately from the vicinity of the spray booths or from the room booths, regardless of location.

(3) The surfaces of all booths, after they have been made clean and free from accumulations of sprayed materials, should be greased and papered, or otherwise prepared so that they may be easily cleaned.

(4) Spraying operations should be located under smooth ceilings.

(5) For the spraying of materials containing volatile solvents, there should be a separate exhaust duct for each booth.

(6) Where plants at present have three or more booths connected to a single exhaust fan they should, whenever possible, change equipment to conform to this subchapter.
