01 Tank Ratio
30 G fresh / 40 G waste
Your tank sizing already satisfies the GA Department of Public Health rule that the waste tank must be at least 15% larger than the fresh tank — passes inspection on day one.

The Project
A 14×7 trailer,
built to code.
A turnkey labor proposal to demo, re-skin, plumb, gas-line and re-electrify a 98 sq ft mobile kitchen for Georgia DPH and Fire Marshal final approval — phased into two flexible budgets.

Foundation build.
Strip the trailer to studs, then rebuild the bones — wall surfaces, electrical service, hot water, and the commercial vent hood that anchors the cookline. Everything required to make the box safe, code-ready, and ready for utilities.

Gas Manifold Lines sized so the flat top doesn’t starve when the fryer kicks on under load — built into the $850 allocation.
Air Gap Sink drains maintain GA-required physical air gap to waste tank to prevent backflow.
Window Frame Reframing accounts for moving-vibration load — windows secured for road use, not just static fit.

Built around the inspection, not after it.
02 Vent Hood
6″ overhang rule
The 6–7 ′ commercial range hood is bracketed to overhang the cookline by at least 6″ on all open sides to capture grease and heat — a hard requirement under GA fire code.
03 Fire Suppression
Ansul system advisory
An automatic suppression system over grease-producing appliances is required by GA fire code. Budget $2,500 – $4,000 separately; must be installed by a licensed fire protection company.
04 Gas Manifold
Three appliances, one feed
Galvanized black-iron lines are sized as a manifold so the flat top doesn’t starve when the fryer kicks on — three regulators, one balanced supply, pressure tested before light-up.
05 Sink Access
Unobstructed hand sink
The hand wash sink is mounted for “easily accessible” use under GA DPH — not tucked behind a swinging door or under a counter. Soap and towel dispenser positions confirmed.
06 Drain Slope
¼″ per foot · gravity-fed
The 40 g waste tank sits below the sink drains to maintain a gravity-fed ¼″ per ft slope, preventing standing water and odors — a common DIY-assist failure point we eliminate at rough-in.
