UL 507

Standard for Electric Fans

This Standard outlines safety requirements for a broad range of electric fans, including desk fans, ceiling fans, through-wall ventilation fans, ducted exhaust fans, and cooking area range hoods and downdrafts.

Specific test requirements for stove range hoods help to determine whether the hoods can withstand the high temperatures, grease and humidity typically emitted when cooking.
