What is Ecology Unit? What is it used for?

In industrial kitchens, undesirable factors such as steam, smoke, soot and bad odors that
occur in cookers such as grills, ovens, barbecues, and stoves during cooking can
adversely affect the personnel working in our kitchens, as well as cause discomfort in the
residential areas around us and thus the formation of complaints. As a result of these
complaints made to the authorized institutions, most businesses have to stop their
activities. For this reason, ecology units are used to protect both the environment,
people and your business, and not to cause loss of prestige and money.
Ecology units are ventilation devices that prevent the release of oil particles, soot, smoke
and odor in the exhaust air of kitchen hoods to the environment by filtering these
pollutants while exhausting them to the external environment. The most important
criterion in the selection and design of an ecology unit is the determination of the right
configuration according to the characteristics of the kitchen. Central type ecology units
are industrial machines specially designed for large-volume kitchens and suitable for
heavy working conditions. It is indispensable especially for hotel kitchens, dining halls
and food facility kitchens with its wide flow range and flow sizes that allow many areas to
be ventilated with a single device. It is also a model that should be used in large-volume
restaurant kitchens based on density. Optimum exhaust and odor filtration is provided
with different configurations consisting of electrostatic separating filter (ESP), active
carbon filter, UV-C lamp or lyon /Ozone filter modules according to kitchen and cooking
type.
Ecology units are plug and play models on the electrical panel and have advanced
automation options for need-based kitchen ventilation.
The most problematic part of ecology units is cleaning and maintenance. The filters
inside the ecology units should be cleaned, changed and maintained at regular intervals.
Fan, motor and electrical connections of the units should be checked. If the maintenance
of the Ecology Units is done regularly, both the device will work more efficiently and
irreversible damage to the device and the business will be prevented. It is important to
get support from authorized specialist companies in maintenance.
