Lines & Jones offer the complete Kitchen ventilation service from a Initial site survey to access the customer requirements, design of the extraction canopy, air input plenum chambers & associated ductwork, production of working drawings for allied trades, right through to the installation & commissioning where required.

This set up allows for the large volumes of air, which are required, to be moved without causing uncomfortable draughts be still allow the staff to feel the benefit of the fresh air. Picture number 1 shows a centre island canopy with baffle type filters and fresh air input grills above the canopy. This type installation is more typical in a larger catering outlet or college training kitchen as shown at South Trafford School of Culinary Arts. Picture number 2 shows the plant that would be required to connect to a large centre island canopy with fresh air input system. Shown is a fresh air intake housing containing disposable pre-filters, an in-line axial fan and silencers this system is terminated with a vertical discharge cowl with in-line fan & silencer. The cowls and silencers were used on this site to ensure that neither the fumes or noise from the fans caused a nuisance to the neighbours.
