The International Mechanical Code (IMC) is a model code that concentrates on the safety of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. The IMC protects public health and safety for all building heating, cooling, and ventilation-related design installation and inspection by providing minimum safeguards. The IMC is the most widely used mechanical code in the United States (it has beenadopted by many state and local governments)and is the basis for several other countries' mechanical codes. The current version of the IMC is the 2021 edition; the codeis updated every three years to include technological advancements and factor in the safest mechanical practices;the next edition of the IMC will be the 2024 edition.

CodeNotes: Nail Salon Exhaust Requirements In The International Codes - Nail Salon Ventilation Requirements

The International Mechanical Code (IMC) requires that nail salon exhaust systems capture contaminants and odors at their source. The design must be capable of exhausting a minimum of 50cfm per station, prohibiting the recirculation of exhausted air and providing makeup air. The SalonSafe Nail Salon Ventilation System meets all these requirements and it also minimizes your heating and cooling system's energy expenditure, thus promoting energy efficiency, no more huge heating bills in the winter and excessive cooling bills in the summer.It also removes formaldehyde and other nail salon chemical pollutants at the source and doesn't allow them to return. This makes it the ONLY choice for nail salon compliance with the 2021 International Mechanical Code (IMC).

In compliance with the IMC, multiple states and local governments/jurisdictions are adopting ventilation requirements that address the potential health risks from chemical exposure in nail salons. If you are a nail salon owner in New York, you probably know about the regulation adopted by the New York State Department of State that requires all businesses offering nail services to provide ventilation to capture and exhaust harmful contaminates, fumes and particles, away from clients and workers. These standards both govern the primary ventilation system, and require the use of local exhaust systems, also known as source capture ventilation, at each manicure and pedicure station. This is exactly what the SalonSafe Nail Salon Ventilation System does; all you need to do is purchase it, install it, and get your compliancecertificate!

As the name implies, the SalonSafe Nail Salon Ventilation System isjust that; safe for your salon. This world-class salon safe system was designed by architects and engineers based on their real-world observations of nail salon technicians and owners. It works as a centralized system, has a sleek, compact kit that makes installation a snap, and comes with simple and smart set-up instructions.

TheSalonSafeVentilation System’s FreshAire ventilation unit handles exhaust and fresh airstreams while moderating temperature extremes and humidity in both summer and winter. It transfers this heat and water vapor from the exhaust air to precondition the fresh air while not mixing the two airstreams. This is important because it minimizes your heating and cooling system's energy expenditure, thus promoting energy efficiency. It also removes formaldehyde and other nail salon chemical pollutants at the source and doesn't allow them to return.

While other ventilation systems for salons can be bulky, noisy, expensive, and require frequent maintenance to operate correctly, the SalonSafe Nail Salon Ventilation System is lightweight, produces minimal sound, is energy efficient, and is cost-effective. While other systems may filter the intake air, they typically exhaust that stale air back into the room, violating the International Mechanical Code. The SalonSafe system brings in fresh outdoor air, meeting local building code requirements.

Yes it can, the SalonSafe FreshAire Unit maxes out at 200cfm or 4 manicure/pedicure stations. If fewer manicure/pedicure stations are attached to the system, it has the ability to exhaust more than 50cfm.

The SalonSafe Salon Ventilation System contains the FreshAire ventilation unit kit, which comes with two accessories; a pressure switch and a booster fan.

The FreshAire ventilation unit is durably built; it uses a robust, water-washable, extremely durable polypropylene core that can withstand a wide range of environmental conditions. It has standard MERV 8 spun polyester filters and provides MAX 50 CFM per station.

The International Mechanical Code (IMC) does not allow you to filter salon fumes and recirculate that air back into the salon; this is why you need to vent to the outdoors. The unit should be relatively close to an exterior wall to minimize the duct length or hose to the exterior vents.

The fresh air intake must be located approximately 10 feet or more from any window/door or other HVAC equipment and at least 7 feet above the ground, and it should not be installed where noxious gasses from outdoor sources are likely to be present, such as the exhaust of an automobile in a driveway.

Yes, ventilating correctly using the Salon Safe ventilation system will save you money on heating and cooling costs. If you simply open a window for fresh air or just have source capture exhaust only, at least two things could go wrong: First, you can’t control which way the air flows or how fast or slow it flows, or even what exactly comes into your salon, such as pollen. Second (and this is important for you as a business owner), the money you’ve already spent to heat or cool the air in the salon is going out the window.

The SalonSafe Ventilation System controls how much fresh air is coming into your salon and how much stale air is leaving your salon, and you can filter out things you don’t want coming back into your salon, such as pollen. Further, the temperature of the air leaving your salon is recovered by the air coming into your salon, so the cost to adjust the temperature of fresh outdoor air coming in is minimized; no more huge heating bills in the winter and excessive cooling bills in the summer!
