Owing to the complexity of the domain, starting 2023 we will break down the standards for education community safety and sustainability into two separate colloquia — Kitchens 100, Kitchenettes 200, and Kitchens 300.
Kitchens 100 will deal with fire safety and ventilation
Kitchenettes 200 will deal with small multi-appliance installations in commercial occupancies; typical in education communities
Kitchens 300 will deal with sustainability criteria. Kitchens 100 will deal primarily safety.
Today we explain the results of our status check on kitchen safety literature; starting with US-based standards developers; among them:
3-A Sanitary Standards
AGA Response to The Atlantic Article about Natural Gas Cooking
American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers
ASHRAE International
Ventilation for Commercial Cooking Operations
ASTM International
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
Noteworthy Research:
