Commercial kitchens
Aromas from the finest delicacies should be enjoyed only from the dining-table plate
Pleasant aroma stimulates appetite: but nobody enjoys a wild mishmash of kitchen odours. During preparation of fish, meat, cabbage, coriander, or the like, effective GEA Happel air-extraction units keep undesirable odours away from restaurant and hotel guests. When things are really hot in the kitchen (in the literal sense of the word), very special functions are required from air-supply and extraction units.
These systems systematically capture and powerfully exhaust air from the kitchen that is laden with grease and odours. Precipitators initially remove grease droplets from the air and prevent them from building dirty films on air ducting. And activated carbon filters take care of odours. These solutions prevent odours from food from offending passers-by in zones near the kitchen and on public thoroughfares outside the hotel. Hotel guests can rest assured: where GEA is at work, aroma from food becomes noticeable only when it arrives on the dining table.
In addition, hygienic conditions are assured by GEA Happel central units that are easy to clean, and that effectively remove particles of dust and debris from the air. Cooks can take a breath of fresh air and guests feel pampered. GEA is well equipped to defeat kitchen odours and vapours with central air treatment systems from a range of models, and with especially designed, heat-resistant GEA Happel air-extraction fans. These systems offer highly effective solutions for snack-preparation in the bar, and for the kitchen of a hotel restaurant. Thanks to sophisticated closed-loop GEA Happel control systems, air-extraction functions run only when they are needed: which saves power and benefits the environment.
