  1. Venting a Ghost Kitchen or Food Hall Stall with a Hanging Ventless Exhaust Hood

    Ghost kitchens and food hall stalls share a problem most standalone restaurants never deal with: someone else owns the roof.

    That makes it a fit for:

    • Ghost kitchen suites where each tenant operates independently
    • Food hall stalls with fixed, non-negotiable infrastructure
    • Mall-based and...
