California, you are special… especially when it comes to the health code requirements for your Foodservice Transaction windows. California typically requires a self-closing window with a relatively small service opening. The opening needs to be under 432 square inches when used in conjunction with a fly fan, or under 216 square inches if not using a fly fan.
Batten down the hatches! Ready Access offers many solutions for coastal region building codes that carry a Miami Dade and Florida Product Approval for either Non-Impact or Impact Hurricane Zones.
Most Ready Access windows “self-close”, so when the operator steps away, the window closes by itself. So how does a window close by itself? There are a number of ways. All are considered the window’s OPERATING SYSTEM. All operating systems are located in the window header, to allow for a track free sill that is easy to keep clean.
With 60 to 70 percent of all quick-service business occurring at the drive-thru window, it is no wonder more restaurants are working to add it to their concept, or expanding the number of windows to serve more customers.
