Also, a fume hood connected to a dust collector seems incongruent. Two different functions should have two separate systems.

In California, the state mechanical code would most likely govern the installation of such ductwork and any required fire protection. Alternatively, contact the local fire authority having jurisdiction to seek their position on the issue.

I have a job where they have a small furnace to create molten metal for castings. There is a hood (2x8ft) above the area where they take the used “probes” and clean them off. This duct work goes outside to a dust collector. How do I determine if sprinklers are needed in the hood and ductwork?
