Kitchen Hood Systems

A commercial kitchen hood system is a crucial component of ventilation systems in a professional kitchen or cooking facility. It’s designed to remove heat, grease, smoke and odors produced when cooking. For top-quality kitchen hood systems, Titan Alarm & Fire has you covered. We provide kitchen hood installation and maintenance services you can rely on for safe and efficient operations in your commercial kitchen or restaurant. 

What Is a Kitchen Hood System?

A typical kitchen hood system consists of an exhaust hood with a fan that’s mounted over a stove or cooking area and connected to a ventilation system and ductwork. A commercial hood system is equipped with a more powerful fan than a residential system, due to the heavier volume of cooking that normally occurs in a restaurant environment. A kitchen hood system can also contain chemicals that will suppress a fire that breaks out on a stovetop, griddle or other cooking surface. The two basic types of chemical systems include:

• Wet chemical system: A wet chemical system is the most commonly used type, due to its ability to extinguish fires caused by cooking oil.
• Dry chemical system: Dry chemical systems work well for flammable liquid fires of minimal depth or involving live electrical equipment.

Kitchen Hood Systems Help to Maintain Air Quality

In addition to providing fire suppression benefits, a kitchen hood system helps to maintain air quality in a kitchen or restaurant environment. The fan will expel pollutants, grease, moisture and cooking odors from the kitchen by drawing them into the fan and ventilation system. This also prevents grease residue from being deposited throughout the kitchen, where it could present an additional fire hazard.

Kitchen Hood System Installation

Kitchen hood installation involves setting up a ventilation system above your cooking area. Components installed in this process include the hood, filters, ductwork, make-up air system and exhaust fan. Licensed and experienced professionals at Titan Alarm & Fire can successfully install your kitchen hood system. They have the knowledge and tools to provide a safe and efficient installation. 

Hood System Maintenance

Regular kitchen hood maintenance is important to prevent potential fire hazards and extend the life expectancy of your kitchen hood. It also keeps your cooking environment clean and safe by preventing grease buildup, which can easily ignite and lead to a kitchen fire. At Titan Alarm & Fire, we have professionals who can properly provide kitchen hood maintenance advice to help you maintain your hood.

Fire Safety Compliance

Complying with fire safety regulations is important in commercial kitchens and restaurants because of the presence of heat sources and flammable materials. Compliance can reduce the risk of fires, maintain safety and prevent business disruption. 

One way to ensure compliance with code regulations is to install commercial kitchen fire alarms that notify you when a fire breaks out so that you can take safety measures. Our experts at Titan Alarm & Fire can install restaurant kitchen fire safety systems, such as fire alarms and reliable special hazard systems, that can help you protect people and minimize damage in the event of a fire.
