Kitchens and workshops produce heat, smoke, fumes and strong smells. Without proper ventilation these build up quickly and make the space uncomfortable and unhealthy.
What good ventilation does
It removes hot and polluted air, brings in fresh air and keeps the temperature under control. This protects staff, equipment and stock.
Common solutions
Exhaust fans, kitchen hoods, ducting and fresh air supply units are the most common. The right mix depends on the size of the space and the type of work done there.
Plan it early
Ventilation works best when it is designed together with the AC system, so that extracted air is replaced properly and cooling is not wasted.
