披萨 / 意大利餐 特有的转换难点

• 01 · Wood/coal oven floor load

  A traditional Neapolitan wood oven weighs 4,000–7,000 lbs concentrated on a 5×5 footprint — that's 200–280 psf, far past the 100 psf typical retail floor rating. Mid-floor or upper-floor TI almost always requires a structural engineer + steel reinforcement ($15K–$40K). Slab-on-grade is the only "easy" case.

• 02 · Solid-fuel hood requirements

  Wood and coal ovens are solid-fuel appliances per NFPA 96 — they require a dedicated Type I hood with ember collector and spark arrestor, separate from your gas-line hood. Combining them onto one hood is a fire-code violation. Plan two hood systems from day one, not a "we'll figure it out" approach.

• 03 · Deck oven ventilation + condensate

  Gas deck ovens emit huge latent-heat plumes — the previous tenant's exhaust system likely vented straight to a make-up air-less rooftop. Without proper MUA, the dining room hits 82°F by 7pm and the AC tries to keep up at $300+/day. Spec MUA tied to deck-oven CFM, not just to the cook line.

• 04 · Dough room temperature + humidity

  A dedicated dough proofing room runs 78–82°F at 75–85% RH — that's a small environmental chamber, not a corner of the back kitchen. Without it, dough quality swings with weather and prep loses 2–3 hours/day to inconsistent rise. Add 60–100 sq ft of conditioned space; budget $8K–$15K.

• 05 · Cheese + tomato cold-prep volume

  A pizza line burns through fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, basil, sauce — all needing 36–40°F prep refrigeration on a sandwich-table-style line. Inherited single reach-ins won't cut it. Plan an 8'–10' refrigerated prep table directly under the make-line; ~$6K–$10K but eliminates the trip-back-to-walk-in pattern that murders throughput.
