Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Clifftop Café in Whitby recently refurbished its kitchen to handle the summer rush. Their old extraction system was struggling to cope with their new gas range, making the kitchen uncomfortably hot and  smoky during peak service.

"The new Modena canopy has made a world of difference. The air is so much cleaner, and  the kitchen is noticeably cooler. Our chefs are happier, and  the whole operation feels more professional and, crucially, safer. It handles the busiest shifts without breaking a sweat."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

The upgrade resulted in a dramatic improvement in air quality and  a significant reduction in ambient temperature during service, boosting staff morale and  productivity.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always ensure the wall you are mounting to is strong enough to support the unit's weight (50kg plus fan).
  • Mount the canopy at the regulation height above your appliances (typically 650mm for electric, 750mm for gas).
  • We strongly recommend using a qualified commercial engineer for installation to ensure safety and  compliance.
  • Ensure all ducting joints are sealed correctly to prevent leaks and  maximise extraction efficiency.

Keeping It Going

  • Remove and  clean baffle filters at least once a week in a commercial dishwasher or sink.
  • Wipe down all internal and  external surfaces of the canopy daily with a suitable stainless steel cleaner.
  • Empty and  clean the grease collection channel regularly to prevent overflow.
  • Schedule an annual deep clean and  inspection by a professional service to keep your system in top condition.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Kitchen Extraction System

Not sure what to look for? Here are a few key things to consider when choosing your restaurant extraction canopy.

Measure Your Cookline

Your canopy should overhang your cooking appliances by at least 200-300mm on each side to effectively capture all fumes.

Gas or Electric?

Gas appliances legally require a deeper canopy (like this 1200mm deep model) and  a gas interlock system for safety.

Check Your Ceiling Height

Ensure you have enough vertical space to mount the canopy at the correct height above your cookline while leaving room for ducting.

Plan Your Fan & Ducting

The canopy is just one part. You need to match it with the correct size fan and  a logical ducting route to the outside.

Understand Filter Types

Baffle filters, like those included here, are the industry standard for commercial kitchens as they are more efficient and  fire-safe than mesh filters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this commercial extraction canopy hood come with a fan?

A: No, the fan motor is sold separately. This allows you to choose the correct power of fan for your specific ducting run and  kitchen requirements.

Q: What are baffle filters?

A: They are high-efficiency grease filters made of interlocking steel panels. They force air to change direction, separating grease and  draining it away, which is safer and  more effective than mesh filters.

Q: Why is the 1200mm depth important?

A: In the UK, current regulations (DW/172) require extraction canopies placed over gas appliances to be at least 1200mm deep to ensure adequate fume capture for safety.

Q: What is a gas interlock system?

A: It's a safety device legally required in commercial kitchens with gas appliances. It links the ventilation system to the gas supply, automatically shutting off the gas if the fans fail to work.

Q: How often do I need to clean the baffle filters?

A: For a moderately busy kitchen, we recommend cleaning them at least once a week. For very high-volume kitchens, they may require cleaning more frequently.

Q: Is the entire unit made from stainless steel?

A: Yes, this is a fully stainless steel extraction hood, which makes it durable, hygienic, and  easy to clean.

Q: Can I install this myself?

A: We strongly recommend that all commercial canopies are installed by a qualified commercial kitchen engineer to ensure it is done safely and  complies with all legal requirements.

Q: How heavy is this unit?

A: The canopy weighs 50kg. Please ensure your wall structure is adequate to support this weight before installation.

How Baffle Filters Keep Your Kitchen Safer

Ever wondered what makes a baffle filter different from a simple mesh one? Think of it like a chicane on a racetrack. Instead of air flowing straight through, baffle filters force the greasy air to take a sharp, winding path through a series of overlapping stainless steel 'baffles'.

As the air snakes its way through, its speed and  direction change rapidly. The heavier grease particles can't make the tight turns, so they slam into the steel walls and  drain away into a collection channel. The much lighter air continues on its way out. This is far more effective and  safer than a simple mesh filter, which can quickly clog up with grease like a blocked kitchen sieve, becoming a serious fire hazard.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Pubs: An essential for keeping your main kitchen line clear of smoke from grills and  hobs.
  • Busy Takeaways: Perfect for fish & chip shops, kebab houses, and  curry centres needing reliable extraction.
  • School & Care Home Kitchens: Ensures a safe and  comfortable environment for staff during large-scale meal production.
  • Dark & Central Production Kitchens: Provides the powerful, compliant ventilation needed for high-volume, continuous cooking operations.
