4 Reasons to Install a Commercial Kitchen Exhaust Filtration System

In case you are wondering why it is a good idea to install a commercial kitchen exhaust filtration system, here are four solid reasons to consider doing so.

​Compliance with Regulations

​The first–and probably the most important–reason to install a commercial kitchen exhaust system for your restaurant or café is to make sure that your business complies with all municipal ordinances and fire codes in your community.

Decreases Operating and Maintenance Costs

​Using commercial cooking exhaust systems reduce the wear and tear on the building’s ventilation systems and duct work. An excellent kitchen filtration system reduces the frequency of duct cleaning and makes it easier to clean when cleaning is needed. This results in lower cleaning and maintenance costs for the business.

Reduces Airborne Pollution

​Airborne pollution causes a number of health concerns, and people who suffer from respiratory diseases such as asthma, COPD and emphysema, or even temporary conditions such as bronchitis or pneumonia, are particularly impacted by airborne pollution. There are also the long-term health impacts of air pollution to consider such as that it may be a factor in cancer or heart disease, or cause long-term damage to your kidneys, liver, lungs and even your nervous system.
 
Commercial kitchen exhaust systems significantly reduce the amount of kitchen emissions from your restaurant and thus reduce airborne pollution.

Lessens Unwanted Odor

Cooking odor can be a concern, especially if your restaurant is part of a high-rise or a large complex where many other businesses and residents work and live. In order to be a good neighbor, a commercial kitchen exhaust filtration system needs to be in place in order to reduce the odors released in the area near by the restaurant.
