Kitchen extraction for Colchester premises
Canopies need to overhang the cooking equipment, use grease filters suited to the cooking, and have access for cleaning. Where gas appliances are used, the gas supply is normally interlocked with the ventilation so cooking cannot run without extract, as BS 6173 sets out.
Odour control and interlocks
Carbon filters or other odour control to meet planning, and gas interlock systems.
Wall and island canopies
Stainless steel canopies with baffle grease filters and lighting.
