  • Publication number: 20150056911
    Abstract: A system is provided for determining whether a damper controlling the flow of make-up air into a kitchen is properly functioning when the kitchen ventilation system is operating.

The notification device can be conveniently positioned in the kitchen so that the user can readily check for proper damper operation when the ventilation system is operating.
