in commercial space, what type of hood do I need to have a roaster in the space? I've read type 1 is needed for grease and smoke removal. type 2 is needed for steam, heat or odor removal. wondering whether it belongs to a smoke removal or heat/odor removal??

thank you.

They don't. Roasters are vented much like a wood stove.

If you have a sprinkler system directly over the roaster, it is not a bad idea to have a hood installed.  There is heat radiating from the roaster after it has been running for an extended period of time & dark roasts could produce a lot of smoke when you dump the batch.  It would simply be a precaution though, not necessary.

IMO, type one would be the best hood for your commercial space since you're gonna be roasting and smoke would be inevitable.
