Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Pros: A superb 'plug-and-play' solution for locations with planning or structural restrictions.
  • Cons: At 70kg, it's a hefty unit that needs a solid wall for installation.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Potter's Kiln Café' in Stoke-on-Trent needed to upgrade their kitchen to include a new chargrill, but their location in a conservation area meant no new external ductwork could be added.

"The Lincat SmartVent was our only option, and  it's been fantastic. It handles all the smoke and  steam from a busy lunch service with no issues at all. The air stays clear, our chefs are happier, and  we passed our health inspection with flying colours."

Samuel Jones – Owner

The installation allowed them to expand their menu, leading to a 25% increase in hot food sales in the first quarter.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure you have a solid, load-bearing wall capable of supporting the unit's 70kg weight.
  • Position the hood at the manufacturer-recommended height above your cooking appliances for optimal fume capture.
  • A qualified electrician must handle the connection to a suitable 230V mains supply.
  • Always allow for clear space around the unit for air circulation and  future maintenance access.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe the stainless steel surfaces daily with a soft, damp cloth and  a mild detergent.
  • Check the primary grease filters weekly and  clean them according to the user manual to maintain airflow.
  • The internal carbon filters will need replacing periodically; monitor performance for signs they are spent.
  • Regularly check that the integrated LED lights are working correctly for a safe cooking environment.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Kitchen Extraction

Feeling a bit lost in the world of ventilation? Here are a few pointers to help you pick the perfect system for your kitchen.

Ducted vs. Recirculating

First, decide if you can vent air outside (ducted) or need a system like this one that filters and  returns it (recirculating). Your building's layout and  local planning rules will be the biggest factor here.

Cooking Power

The more heat, smoke, and  grease your appliances produce, the more powerful your extraction needs to be. Match the system's capacity to your cookline—a chargrill needs more oomph than an induction hob.

Get the Size Right

Your extractor canopy should always be slightly wider and  deeper than the cooking area below it. This creates an 'air curtain' that ensures all fumes are captured effectively.

Know Your Filters

Baffle filters are excellent for capturing grease and  are usually washable. Carbon filters are the champs at removing odours but need replacing periodically.

Consider the Noise

Check the decibel (dB) rating. A noisy extractor can make for a stressful kitchen, especially if it’s open or close to your dining area. A rating around 60-65dB is great for busy environments.

How Advanced Fume Filtration Keeps Your Air Cleaner

Ever wondered what 'recirculating filtration' actually means? Unlike a standard extractor which just vents fumes outside, the Lincat SmartVent acts like a high-tech cleaning station for your kitchen's air. Think of it like a water filter jug for the air. As greasy, steamy air is pulled in, it passes through a series of complex filters. The first stage catches the heavy grease particles, and  subsequent stages, often involving carbon filters, neutralise the odours. Only once the air is scrubbed clean is it released back into the kitchen. This means you're not just moving bad air around – you're actively removing the gunk, resulting in a healthier, more pleasant environment for everyone.
