Ventilation plays a crucial role in every commercial kitchen, so it’s important to use the right system for your needs.

GLS are experts in the design, specification and installation of commercial kitchens, and employ highly trusted specialists to meet clients’ commercial kitchen ventilation needs.

The experts that we work with fully understand what makes a good ventilation system. They know that just like commercial kitchens themselves, no two systems are exactly the same.

While we can supply and install commercial kitchen ventilation to an existing specification, most clients ask us to design their system for them as part of the overall scheme.

In all instances, clients tell us they value our insights and recommendations as this often helps them achieve a better system for their budget.

Key elements of a ventilation system from GLS

  • Canopies built to a high standard using high-grade stainless steel to meet all the necessary criteria. The type and style of kitchen canopy will depend on the cooking equipment in place and the level of grease extraction required. It will also be designed with the general kitchen environment in mind.

  • Extraction, which can include a supply air (make-up air) system with the options of electric heating, low pressure hot water (LPHW) heating, or heat reclamation. It can also include systems for hot/cold comfort-cooling, as well as various forms of grease elimination, smoke abatement and odour control.

  • Fans and controls designed to suit each unique application, including gas interlock systems.

  • Fire suppression system based on the cooking equipment layout.
