Precision on Paper. Compliance in the Kitchen.
We provide the professional mechanical layouts and engineered drawings required for municipal permits, ensuring your project starts on a solid, code-compliant foundation.
Every successful kitchen build or major retrofit begins long before the first piece of steel is hung. In the Niagara Region, navigating building codes and NFPA 96 standards requires more than just a plan—it requires a technical blueprint. We bridge the gap between your vision and the inspector’s clipboard, providing the engineered drawings necessary to move your project from ‘concept’ to ‘construction’.
Permit-Ready Mechanical Layouts
We specialize in the technical documentation required for municipal permit applications. Our drawings aren’t just lines on a page; they are engineered solutions designed to pass inspection the first time.
- Ventilation Design: Calculations for CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) to ensure your exhaust and intake are perfectly balanced.
- Hood & Duct Routing: Detailed layouts showing clearances to combustibles and structural integration.
- Gas Manifold Schematics: Sizing and routing plans for high-volume gas lines to support your full equipment line.
Code Compliance & NFPA 96 Consulting
Don’t guess on compliance. We use our 20+ years of ‘boots-on-the-ground’ experience to identify potential red flags before they become expensive mistakes.
- Pre-Construction Review: We analyze your equipment list and kitchen footprint to ensure everything meets Ontario Building Code requirements.
- MUA & Air Balancing: Technical specifications for Make-Up Air units to prevent negative pressure issues and ‘whistling’ doors.
- Fire Suppression Integration: Coordinating nozzle placement and pull-station locations with your fire safety drawings.
From Blueprint to Build
The biggest advantage of working with Tech Niagara is that we don’t just hand you a drawing and walk away. Because we are also the installers, our drawings are designed for ‘real-world’ execution. We know how the steel actually hangs, which means fewer surprises for your trades and faster timelines for your opening day.
