American ultraviolet kitchen exhaust ke hood germicidal fixtures are designed to reduce odor emissions and grease deposits commonly associated with kitchen exhaust hoods.
Kitchen exhaust uv light. With the uv safe can. Many of these systems use grease filters as a pre filter to extract as much of the grease and smoke as possible before the contaminated air stream is passed over the uv lights. Ideal for retrofit the techinclean mini can fit into existing ductwork and can be installed using an access panel. In this system particulate in the exhaust air stream is subjected to high intensity uv light.
Featuring high output uv v lamps the grease and odours from the cooking process are attacked first by uv c light photolysis. This keeps the roof clean and reduces fire hazards. Before the installation of the heraeus noblelight kitchen module the kitchen hood is contaminated with grease. The uv c light and ozone react with the grease and odours drawn into the cooker hood converting them to carbon dioxide and water.
The uv light and ozone are produced by the fluorescent lamp in the filter housing s reaction chamber. The remaining grease is then eliminated with uv light technology resulting in a clean exhaust ductwork. According to the national fire protection association nfpa the majority of restaurant fires originate on the kitchen cooking appliances and flare into the kitchen exhaust system.

Ozone then continues to act through the ductwork as the exhaust air moves through ozonolysis. Caddy uvc or ultra violet hoods are designed for cleanest possible hoods on the market.

This is why odours are released into the open air with the exhaust air from the kitchen.

Regular maintenance of a restaurant s kitchen exhaust system is one of the primary defenses against hazards.
