Restaurant and Commercial Kitchen Design
Ventilation:
In designing proper HVAC for your restaurant/kitchen, it’s a delicate balance whereby many factors must be considered. Safety and comfort are of utmost importance for workers and customers alike!
On the kitchen side, proper ventilation is imperative! Thumb Cooling and Heating is happy to coordinate with your engineering team or advise on the proper equipment necessary to ensure that the kitchen ventilation is integrated with what the kitchen exhaust is doing at any given time based on the cooking activities in the kitchen.
Commercial kitchen ventilation must take into consideration hood capture effectiveness, supply air distribution air currents, comfort, energy use, space differential pressure, and all of the associated controls needed to ensure the kitchen is indeed always “ventilated” efficiently. This requires good engineering and proper control to operate a commercial ventilation system.
Accurate ventilation is so important! And here’s why:
- You don’t want unpleasant odors escaping into customer space.
- Air balance problems can cause irritating issues in your restaurant like draftiness and slamming or jammed doors.
- Backdrafting in your kitchen is a serious safety concern, whereby perilous carbon monoxide or other byproducts could seep back into your space causing harm to employees and customers alike. Air quality is of utmost importance!
- Heating systems may suffer damage.
- Kitchen exhaust hoods may be inefficient.
- Kitchen grease may build up and you’ll be paying your workers for more time cleaning!
- Poor comfort conditions may lead to less customers
- Higher utility bills may cut into your profits without proper ventilation!
