At Hoods "R" Us our goal is to help educate our customers about Plumbing, HVACR, Fire Protection and Alarm Systems in commercial and high-end residential settings.
Controlling kitchen temperatures and air quality:
Kitchens can be very uncomfortable environments for the people working in them. Most often kitchens are extremely hot, but if the HVAC system isn’t properly balanced, a kitchen can become too cold for comfort. Preparing and cooking food produces smoke, steam, airborne particles and odors that can irritate eyes and skin or cause respiratory troubles. A quality commercial kitchen ventilation system from Hoods "R" Us will effectively remove the irritants in the air while contributing to temperature control throughout the kitchen area.
Reducing energy loss:
Proper kitchen ventilation requires a complete replacement of kitchen air – that is, air removed through exhaust systems must be replaced by air brought in through the HVAC equipment or ventilation sources. One of the disadvantages of this system is that heating or cooling energy can also be removed as smoke, particles and odors are exhausted out of the building. Correctly designed commercial kitchen ventilation systems can stop this waste of air and energy by reducing the amount of HVAC-conditioned air that’s pulled out and lost through ventilation.
Restricting odors:
The odors associated with food and cooking can’t be avoided in a commercial kitchen, but a properly arranged ventilation system can keep those odors from escaping into the dining room, bar or other areas where they could be disagreeable to customers. Arranging CKV systems to produce negative pressure in the kitchen will help keep those odors out of the customer areas.
Stopping contamination of exhaust systems:
Ventilation systems can be contaminated by the grease, dust and other material contained in kitchen air. When this happens, ventilation fans, ducts, hoods and equipment must be cleaned, creating additional expense for the restaurant owner. A CKV can be designed to use effective filtration to minimize the amount of material that accumulates on the ventilation equipment or ductwork saving you down time and dollars.
