Specialty per-table cooking ventilation engineered for a national K-BBQ brand.
Korean BBQ and hot pot concepts put a cooking appliance on every table — a ventilation problem most engineers see rarely. QD Design designed the specialized exhaust and makeup-air approach, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing for this KPot location in the Dallas metro, balancing per-table ventilation with dining comfort and energy code limits in a fast-track tenant improvement. The design cleared city review with responses on UMC, NEC, and UPC comments.
