Another update. Apparently the existing hood/vent was put in without a permit, and the code inspector is well aware of that fact. He told our engineer that if we even think about touching the existing hood, we'd have to bring the whole thing into compliance, which means running duct 3 stories up to the roof.
Also, because southern Pride doesn't make that big electric smoker anymore, they wouldn't give the engineer any specs on it. Which leads me to believe they'll be a hassle about getting replacement parts for it as well.
