FAQ's Paint BoothsQ. Do our Paint Booths meet “code”? A. Our spray booths are manufactured and designed for code approval. All models are manufactured from materials that meet the National Board of Fire Underwriters, as recommended by the 2003 National Fire Protection Association (NFPA33) requirements. They are also built within OSHA guidelines. We advise you to check with your local authorities as to any "local" electrical or fire codes that may apply. The electrical components within the booth are UL-listed, but booth itself is not UL-rated. Q. Explain exhaust/duct work requirements. A. You need an exhaust/duct work system to exhaust fumes to the outside of your building. They are optional with the purchase of our paint booth. Our exhaust/duct work packages provide straight duct (no elbows) roof mounting and a weatherhead. Q. Can our paint booths be used outside? A. No. All our paint booths are manufactured to be assembled and operated in an enclosed area away from the weather. An additional building structure is required for an outside location. Q. What is typically not included in our paint booths? A. We supply all the basic items that the majority of suppliers provide. However, there are a few items that we do not supply. These include 48" fluorescent light bulbs (because they are prone to breakage in shipping) and electrical wiring kits (starter, switches, conduit, etc). Wiring codes vary widely from state to state and even from county to county. We have found it is just more cost effective for our customers to have a licensed electrician to provide all the necessary components. Ductwork is not included but is available as a separate item. Q. Do I need a Fire Suppression System? A. This requirement varies by area. We do supply fire suppression systems (Badger Industry Guard) at very competitive prices and with the labor included in the price. However, you can purchase a fire suppression system locally. These systems can be included in your lease or financing if needed. Q. Will I need someone to install my paint booth? A. We encourage you to install your our paint booth yourself if you have the time (do it yourself paint booth). Each booth comes with assembly instructions and labeled panels for ease of installation. Depending on how handy you are, you and a couple of friends can get your paint booth up in 2 to 3 days. Should you want a professional installer, we can recommend someone in your area. However, this cost usually runs $2,000 or more. If you install your booth, this is a big savings to you. You will need a licensed electrician to wire and hookup your power source. Q. How will we unload the shipping crate containing the booth? A. We typically use a commercial freight carrier to ship our paint booths. You will need a forklift with a dock or a rollback truck. The entire unit weighs approximately 4,000 pounds for a standard auto-sized booth. Q. What is the Warranty Period? A. The standard Warranty is for 5 years on the booth and 1 year on the fan/motor. However, we want you to be pleased with your booth and will work with you to make any reasonable problems right. Q. Who makes the paint booths? A. Our plant is located in Greensboro, NC. Our team builds over a thousand booths per year which emphasizes our quality and affordability Q. What if I need some modifications to your presented booths? A. Because we manufacture our booths, we are able to make customization changes to them. You simply have to tell us what you would like. Q. What are the differences between the different types of paint booths? A. The differences are primarily in the presentation and exhaust of the airflow. Your salesperson can explain the benefits of each. Q. How long does it take for delivery after I order? A. Once the payment method is accepted, it normally takes 5 to 7 days to arrive at your location provided you need it within this time period. |
