Building a Sustainable Kitchen
Ventilation considerations.
|
Proper ventilation can provide savings on the energy used in cooling your kitchen and facilities, and actually lets your cooking and warewashing equipment work more efficiently. Cleaner and fresher air in the kitchen also makes for a more comfortable—and therefore more productive—work environment.
Hobart Air Filtration Systems. Made of rapidly renewable natural wool, Hobart Air Filtration Systems keep your metal baffle filters and exhaust hood system virtually grease-free.
Wool is a natural grease attracter. Now Hobart uses wool in a filter system to collect nearly all the greasy particles that exhaust up into your hood system. It keeps filters, vents, duct system and roof almost grease-free, reducing labor, cleaning, maintenance and repair, while diminishing the threat of fire. It even helps keep the grease out of your HVACR and other rooftop systems, including fans and motors. The grease-absorbing capability of wool can also lengthen the interval between your scheduled professional cleaning and maintenance of vent hood systems.
Environmentally friendly Both the wool filter and the grease it collects are entirely biodegradable, making it easy to dispose of. You just put it in with your regular trash. That also prevents grease from entering the local wastewater as typically occurs when metal filters are cleaned in commercial dishwashers.
Improved air quality >Hobart’s Air Filtration System also helps eliminate kitchen odors that often stay on restaurant employees and patrons.
Degrease your rooftop With all but no grease entering into your vent system, there is a similar reduction in grease on the roof. That can lead to a substantial savings in roof maintenance and repair.
