Commercial Kitchens

A busy commercial kitchen produces a lot of heat, smoke, steam and grease-laden air. Without proper ventilation it quickly becomes an uncomfortable place to work, a hygiene problem and a fire risk.

What good kitchen ventilation does

• Removes heat and smoke at the source, so staff can work comfortably through long shifts
• Controls grease: grease that is not captured settles on walls, ceilings and ducts, where it becomes both a food safety issue and a fire hazard
• Keeps odours in the kitchen and away from dining areas, guest rooms and neighbours
• Balances the air: every cubic metre exhausted has to be replaced, or doors slam, burners flicker and hoods stop capturing properly
• Protects equipment and finishes from heat and grease build-up

What we provide

• Exhaust hoods sized for the cooking line and the type of cooking
• Exhaust fans and ducting designed for grease-laden air
• Treated or untreated fresh air make-up systems
• Grease filtration and, where needed, odour control units before discharge
• Spot cooling for hot work zones
• Periodic cleaning and maintenance of hoods, filters and ducts

We work on kitchens for hotels, restaurants, hospitals, industrial canteens and central production kitchens.
