Kitchen Exhaust Ducting Systems
Commercial kitchen exhaust is a specialized HVAC discipline involving fire safety, grease management, and odor control. Perfect HVAC Solutions delivers complete kitchen exhaust solutions for restaurants, hotels, food courts, hospitals, and institutional kitchens across India - all engineered to NFPA 96 and NBC fire safety standards.
What Makes Kitchen Exhaust Different
Standard HVAC ductwork cannot handle kitchen exhaust. The hot air, grease aerosols, and smoke from commercial cooking demand specialized materials, all-welded construction, fire-rated wrapping, slope for grease drainage, accessible cleanouts, and integration with fire suppression systems.
Our Complete Kitchen Exhaust Scope
- Type I exhaust hoods for greasy cooking (deep frying, charcoal grilling)
- Type II hoods for non-greasy heat/steam (dishwashers, ovens, steamers)
- SS-304 or SS-430 all-welded ductwork per NFPA 96
- Grease filtration - baffle filters, mesh, ESP for high-grease loads
- Variable speed exhaust fans with smoke-rated capability
- Make-up air units for tempered fresh air supply
- Fire suppression integration (Ansul, Amerex)
- Roof-mounted upblast or sidewall exhaust fans
NFPA 96 and NBC Compliance
All our kitchen exhaust installations follow NFPA 96 - Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations - and NBC 2016 fire safety requirements. This includes specified clearances, fire-rated enclosures, automatic fire suppression, and accessible cleaning ports per regulation.
