The advantages of a variable speed hood and a tempered air generator
The installation of a variable speed hood can generate significant energy savings of up to 35%. This type of unit is equipped with a variable speed fan that allows the airflow from the hood to be adapted according to the rate of heat/smoke/steam emission from the cooking appliances. The variable speed hood avoids rejecting too much hot air to the outside and reduces the amount of fresh air to be heated.
