This results in greater profitability for the restaurant business and at the same time improves work conditions considerably.

Typically, ventilation in a commercial kitchen operates at 100% of capacity, regardless of kitchen appliance usage. The energy consumption can be cut significantly through adoption of demand-based ventilation. With Halton Marvel system, savings are then achieved in both heating and electricity consumption. Similarly, constantly operating ventilation systems waste heating energy. Heat can be recovered from the exhaust air and used either for heating supply air or for heating water with a heat pump.

Energy savings affect profitability in the restaurant business substantially. A typical luncheon restaurant can save thousands of euros every year by using energy-efficient ventilation. At the same time, customer and employee satisfaction is improved as a result of a better indoor environment with right temperature, moisture level and no unwanted odours.
