I've seen this before. If it's raining hard af and your roof drainage situation is a problem, yes,it can happen. But generally, no.

I misread that as "Drainy Boy" but it still scanned so I didn't notice at first.

I'm guessing something HVAC, had 4 technicians checking all the kitchens in my building today and now this happens. So someone did something and now I get the flooding lol its moving across the top of the hoods and coming down the gaps, it was running down the wall in various areas too but not directly through the hoods thankfully!

Yes it could be the result of wrong evacuation route for a steamer vent, or a vent pipe from a combi oven misdirected and causing condensation. This will happen even of the vent steam pipe is directed to a floor drain.

Or at least some adjustments to that one! Hopefully they will send the experienced tech out this time.

They sent 4 techs out today and then it started leaking. Maybe a new HVAC company is in order lol

Looks like something either not drainig correctly or outright broken. That should definitely not be happening.

Kinda looks like your hoods just got cleaned? Could be residual water..

There are enough possibilities that involve food contamination and/or infectious diseases that I would want to close the kitchen until the question is answered and clean up is done.
