  • Role and Importance of Industrial Kitchen Exhaust Hoods

    Imagine working for hours in a kitchen without an exhaust ventilation system: grease-laden smoke, cooking odors, and heat continuously rise, adhere to clothing, and spread throughout the entire space. This not only causes discomfort but also reduces labor productivity and negatively affects food quality. Industrial kitchen exhaust hoods are therefore an essential solution, significantly improving the working environment in professional kitchens.

     

    Why Is an Exhaust Ventilation System Required in Industrial Kitchens?

    In high-capacity kitchen environments such as restaurants, hotels, and central kitchens, the amount of heat, smoke, and odors generated during cooking is extremely high. If not properly treated, these factors may lead to:

    • Hot, stuffy kitchen spaces with strong grease odors
       

    • Negative impacts on the health of chefs and service staff
       

    • Cross-contamination of food odors, affecting dish quality
       

    • Increased risk of equipment damage due to grease and smoke accumulation
       

    Installing an industrial kitchen exhaust hood not only enables rapid removal of smoke, odors, and heat, but also ensures a clean and well-ventilated working environment—especially critical for open kitchens or live-cooking areas.

     

    Structure and Operating Principle of Industrial Exhaust Systems

    Behind the robust and polished appearance of an exhaust hood lies a coordinated technical system that plays a key role in grease filtration, odor control, air conveyance, and maintaining effective airflow circulation within the kitchen.

    Main Components of an Industrial Exhaust Hood System

    A typical industrial kitchen exhaust system consists of 3 main components, each serving a specific function:

    1. Exhaust Hood Assembly: This is the most visible component within the kitchen area. It consists of grease baffle filters, lighting fixtures, grease collection trays, and the stainless-steel hood structure.

    2. Exhaust Ductwork System: Includes exhaust ducts and, where required, sound attenuators. Ducts are commonly designed in round or rectangular shapes, assembled using elbows and connectors with defined lengths. Sound attenuators are installed when high-capacity exhaust fans are used to reduce operational noise.

    3. Industrial Exhaust Fan: One of the most critical components determining overall system performance. Fan capacity is selected based on kitchen size, cooking load, and ventilation requirements.

    Principle of Smoke Extraction, Grease Filtration, and Air Discharge

    • When kitchen equipment is in operation, smoke and heat are captured directly at the cooking area by the exhaust hood through its canopy design and controlled airflow direction.

    • Grease baffle filters retain the majority of oil particles contained in the smoke by means of impact separation and condensation principles.

    • The filtered airflow is then conveyed by the industrial exhaust fan through the exhaust ductwork system and discharged to the outdoor environment via the exhaust outlet.

    • In advanced systems, the exhaust air may be further treated by activated carbon odor control units or UV filtration systems prior to being released to the environment.

    Role of the Exhaust Fan and Ductwork in the Overall System

    • The industrial exhaust fan serves as the “heart” of the system, determining the overall extraction capacity. Depending on the kitchen scale and cooking load, fan power typically ranges from 750 W to over 10 kW.

    • The exhaust ductwork conveys the extracted air to the outdoor environment. Stainless steel ducts are commonly used, in either round or rectangular configurations, connected with elbows and equipped with backdraft dampers to prevent reverse airflow.

    • For enclosed spaces or noise-sensitive areas, sound attenuator ducts are installed to reduce noise generated by the exhaust fan.

    This closed-loop operating structure ensures maximum efficiency in odor removal, heat reduction, and indoor air quality improvement, providing an optimal working environment for all industrial kitchens.

     

     

    Classification of Common Industrial Kitchen Exhaust Hood Types

    Not all kitchen exhaust systems are the same. Depending on the kitchen layout, installation location, and operational requirements, each type of industrial kitchen exhaust hood is designed differently. A clear understanding of the commonly used hood types helps in selecting the most optimal solution for each specific kitchen application.

     

    Wall-Mounted Exhaust Hoods and Four-Sided Exhaust Hoods

    • Wall-mounted exhaust hoods: This is the most commonly used type, typically installed against a wall and suitable for cooking equipment arranged along the kitchen perimeter. The design is simple and compact, allowing for ease of installation, operation, and maintenance.

    • Four-sided exhaust hoods: These hoods are intended for centrally located cooking stations (island-type kitchens), providing uniform smoke capture from all four sides. This configuration requires a rigid suspension system and higher-capacity exhaust fans to ensure effective extraction performance.

    Both hood types can be equipped with stainless steel grease baffle filters and grease collection trays, enabling convenient cleaning while maintaining efficient capture of smoke and odors at the cooking area.

    Exhaust Hoods with Fresh Air Supply

    This is an advanced exhaust hood system designed for enclosed kitchens, poorly ventilated spaces, or kitchens without a central air-conditioning system. In addition to smoke extraction, the system supplies treated fresh air from outside into the kitchen area in order to:

    • Balance indoor air pressure within the kitchen space
       

    • Reduce ambient temperature and improve thermal comfort
       

    • Enhance smoke extraction efficiency through proper airflow circulation
       

    Exhaust hoods with fresh air supply are commonly installed in 5-star hotel kitchens, central kitchens and large-scale catering facilities.

    Low-Ceiling Stainless Steel Exhaust Hoods and Island-Type Hoods

    • Low-ceiling stainless steel exhaust hoods: These hoods are specifically designed for spaces with limited ceiling height, such as container kitchens, temporary kitchens, or small food outlets. Despite their compact dimensions, effective smoke extraction can still be achieved when the exhaust fan capacity is properly selected.

    • Island-type exhaust hoods: These hoods are ceiling-suspended and intended for cooking equipment located at the center of the kitchen. Featuring a modern design, they are commonly integrated with LED lighting and advanced grease filtration systems, making them suitable for open and premium kitchen environments.

    Exhaust Hoods for BBQ and Tabletop Grilling Systems

    This is a specialized exhaust system commonly used in Korean BBQ restaurants and tabletop grilling concepts, featuring direct smoke extraction at the dining table. Key characteristics include:

    • Adjustable vertical movement to suit different cooking positions
       

    • Integrated tubular grease filtration system
       

    • Effective reduction of odor dispersion within shared dining spaces
       

    This system requires careful design of concealed ceiling ductwork or overhead duct routing to maintain aesthetics and avoid obstruction to customer circulation.

     

     

    Criteria for Selecting Industrial Kitchen Exhaust Hoods for Different Applications

    Before installing an industrial kitchen exhaust hood system, suitability must be carefully evaluated. Each hood type is designed with a specific extraction capacity to match particular kitchen layouts and operational requirements.

    • Residential range hoods: These units feature compact designs and are typically rated from 80 W to 500 W. They are suitable only for removing limited amounts of grease and cooking odors in low-load applications.

    • Exhaust systems for institutional and central kitchens: These systems are designed based on kitchen dimensions and cooking intensity. Typical fan capacities range from 750 W to 11 kW, providing effective removal of grease-laden smoke and odors while maintaining acceptable indoor air quality.

    • Exhaust systems for BBQ and tabletop grilling restaurants: These systems are usually compact and configured as integrated extraction systems. Fan capacities generally range from 1 kW to 10 kW and are specifically designed for smoke and odor extraction in BBQ and hotpot cooking applications.

    Key Considerations When Selecting an Exhaust System for Industrial Kitchens

    When selecting an exhaust ventilation system for an industrial kitchen, several critical factors must be taken into consideration:

    • The kitchen size and cooking layout must be accurately determined in order to select an exhaust fan with appropriate capacity. An improperly sized fan will result in insufficient extraction performance and reduced system efficiency. Therefore, different kitchen types require different exhaust configurations.
       

    • The kitchen design should be carefully reviewed to determine the optimal installation location of the exhaust system. This allows proper identification of hood placement as well as appropriate routing and spacing of the exhaust ductwork.

    Proper Maintenance and Cleaning of Industrial Kitchen Exhaust Hoods

    • Grease filters shall be cleaned on a regular basis, typically 1–2 times per week, depending on operating frequency.
      1–2 times per year 

    • Exhaust ductwork should be inspected and cleaned to prevent grease accumulation.
       

    • Exhaust fans require periodic maintenance, including inspection of bearings, lubrication, and impeller condition.
       

    • The system shall be kept airtight by regularly checking all joints and connections to prevent air leakage.
       

    The stability and performance of an industrial exhaust hood system depend not only on equipment quality but also on proper installation and regular maintenance. Correct initial investment ensures smooth operation and long-term cost efficiency.
