3 Different Kitchen Ducts

· Engineering Services

What exactly is going on in the kitchen besides all the cooking and food preparation? The common kitchen is installed with modern exhaust and ventilation systems. Without a properly maintained kitchen ventilation system, disasters are bound to happen!

Listed below are the different types of kitchen ducts. Without them, the kitchen is exposed to the risks and dangers of accidental proportions.

Kitchen exhaust duct

The kitchen exhaust duct contains a mechanical fan that is hanged above a stove. It eradicates airborne grease, smoke, fumes, steam, and heat by process of filtration and evacuation of air. In addition, any kitchen exhaust system in Singapore is designed to eliminate odour. Most exhaust systems also remove grease and other particles.

Also, most kitchen exhaust ducts are equipped with built-in lighting to illuminate the cooking area. High-end ducts usually include electronic features that allow the user to adjust the height, thermal sensor, and noise cancellation among others.

Ventilation duct

Just like a kitchen exhaust duct, a mechanical ventilation system in Singapore is designed to filter the air and provide an adequate supply of airflow for the room. Ventilation ducts should provide rooms with proper indoor air quality and thermal comfort. Ducts are made of different materials such as galvanised steel and aluminium.

Aircon duct

Aircon ducting systems in Singapore are just like any typical ventilation duct. They exist to provide proper airflow from air-conditioning systems to the outside world. An aircon duct helps provide the kitchen with a cool temperature to keep everyone satisfied.

It’s worth noting that whatever type of duct your kitchen may be installed with, you should always maintain and clean it for the welfare of you and everybody in the kitchen. Dirty kitchen exhaust ducts can lead to disastrous events in the kitchen!
