Ventilation Solutions for Pizza Restaurants

I scream, you scream, we all scream for…pizza?! Okay, we know that’s not how the saying goes, but here at HoodMart, we think pizza is just as worthy of its own rhyme as ice cream. And millions of folks agree. Step into your favorite pizza shop, breathe in the irresistible aroma of bubbling cheese, tangy tomato sauce, and freshly baked dough and tell us we’re wrong. We’ll wait.

 

Okay, but really…we opened with some humor, but behind the scenes, the kitchen environment at a pizza restaurant is no joke. It can quickly become hot, greasy and even dangerous. That's where HoodMart's ventilation solutions step in, ensuring a clean, safe, and comfortable workspace for pizza chefs to work their magic.

 

Type I Pizza Canopy Hoods with Make-Up Air Supply

At the core of HoodMart's ventilation solutions for pizza restaurants are the Type I Pizza Canopy Hoods with Make-Up Air Supply. Meticulously designed and constructed in accordance with industry standards, including NFPA 96, NSF specifications, and UL listings to ANSI/UL and CAN/ULC, these hoods are the frontline defenders against grease and odors. Crafted from durable 18-gauge steel and featuring welded joints that are liquid-tight, they stand as guardians of cleanliness and safety in the pizza kitchen.

 

Superior Grease Filtration

Maintaining a clean and grease-free kitchen environment is essential in any pizza restaurant. HoodMart's pizza canopy hoods are equipped with 20" stainless steel baffle-type grease filters, which carry UL listings for their effectiveness in trapping grease particles. The grease trough is designed to efficiently collect grease extracted by the filters, ensuring easy cleanup and compliance with sanitation regulations.

 

Customizable Sizes Ensure Proper Ventilation for Any Pizza Kitchen Layout

HoodMart understands that every pizza kitchen is unique, which is why our pizza canopy hoods come in a range of sizes to accommodate various oven configurations and kitchen layouts. Whether you need an 8-foot hood for a compact kitchen or a larger 12-foot hood for a high-volume operation, we have options to suit your specific requirements. And with standard 430 all stainless steel construction where exposed, our hoods not only perform exceptionally but also look sleek and professional.

 

Efficient Make-Up Air Supply

Proper ventilation is about more than just removing cooking odors and grease-laden vapors—it's also about ensuring a comfortable and safe working environment for kitchen staff. HoodMart's pizza canopy hoods are equipped with short cycle make-up air supply systems. HoodMart also offers PSP (Perforated Supply Plenum) and BSP (Back Return Supply Plenum) make-up air hood systems, and both tempered and untempered supply options, which provide fresh, tempered air to replace the air being exhausted. This helps maintain optimal air balance in the kitchen, preventing negative pressure situations and ensuring efficient operation of the hood.The team at HoodMart can help you select the appropriate make-up air system for your application and location.
