Fläkt Woods introduces new kitchen canopy extract fans

Flakt Woods

A new generation of kitchen canopy fan from Fläkt Woods has an externally located motor, enabling high-performance extraction at high temperatures — up to 80°C.

Greasefighter is designed for commercial kitchen exhaust systems to remove heat, kitchen odours, smoke and products of combustion to maintain a comfortable working environment.

Faye Young, external sales engineer with the company, explains that tighter legislation has led to an increase in the system resistance in traditional canopy solutions, notably with the use of carbon filters for contaminated air and odours.

A choice of outlet positions could save 2 to 3 m of ducting per installation. The double-skinned prefabricated mild-steel box is acoustically lined and can be mounted inside or outside. It is said to be one of the quietest canopy solutions available with the motor out of the airstream.
