  1. Going Ventless

    There are no roof fans to install, no duct work to run and no separate hood to hang in place. Because of all of this, ventless commercial hoods not only save on accessories and installation, they eliminate the need to cut open your roof, thereby saving you the ordeal of ensuring that the roof is adequately sealed to keep out any inclement weather.

    This can be especially helpful to owners of restaurants in older buildings, where one never knows what one will encounter when opening up a ceiling/roof space. Ventless hoods are also an excellent choice when venting through a roof or wall is simply not an option.

    Ventless hoods are ideal for eliminating cooking vapors that contain grease. Because the units are self-contained, they can be positioned wherever you might need them in your kitchen. They are typically used to vent frying machines. The ventless hoods stocked by HoodMart feature an inventive triple filter system with updraft technology to make sure that every requirement you have for removing cooking vapors can be met.

    In addition, an interlocking start system comes standar...
