[quote=”Ben” post=28822][quote=”ding” post=28802]Stay away from the chinese booths. I dont think they actually have the proper ETL listings. it’ll be a nightmare getting one up to code to pass inspection. I have a Garmat 3000 27′ long. dual skin with 1.5mil BTU air makeup. Mine is also on a raised basement instead of a dug pit. Installed with dry chem fire suppression was just over 55k. they wanted around 4-5 more more the accudraft. things are tight nowadays and you can likely work them some and get a real good deal. The FutureCure is manufactured about 45 minutes away from me. decent quality but still not up to par with garmat/gfs/accuspray and not any cheaper in price either[/quote]
I know of a chinese booth that was purchased In Calgary a little while ago. It had the ETL sticker and paper work with it. Upon inspection it was determined that these were forgeries and the booth was not actually certified. The booth wound up being shipped back to the supplier after nearly a year of endless hassle between the shop, booth supplier and city inspectors.
I agree with Ding, don’t waste your time with that garbage. Stick with the American or European booths[/quote]
Well there are about 6 shops I know of in my area that used the chinese booth. It is certified and gets inspected no problem. The problem is, it’s only a few thousand less. When you’re already spending this much money, I’d rather get the booth made in europe. To top it off, i’m not wild about the salesman. I’m 99% I will end up going with accudraft.
