In addition, heating equipment and refrigeration equipment should be placed separately and centrally as far as possible to avoid waste of energy. After heating the equipment that easily produces oil fume and vapor, it is best to exhaust them together to facilitate centralized exhaust fume and reduce energy consumption.
