Expert Review and  Insights

Lincat has a reputation for building solid, no-nonsense gear, and  this SmartVent system is a prime example. It’s a cleverly designed piece of equipment that solves a genuine problem for caterers in challenging sites. The filtration is impressively effective for a self-contained unit, and  its robust construction means it’s clearly built for the daily grind of a commercial kitchen.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Top-tier filtration: Excellent for sites where traditional extraction is simply not an option.
  • Weight consideration: At 70kg, it requires a secure wall and  a two-person installation.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Northern Pie Co.' in Leeds needed to upgrade their kitchen ventilation to handle two new high-output ovens. Their city-centre location in a historic building meant that external ducting was a complete non-starter, leaving them struggling with heat and  smoke.

"The SmartVent was exactly what we needed. It was installed over a weekend, and  the difference was immediate. The air is so much cleaner, the kitchen is cooler, and  our chefs are genuinely happier. It’s a brilliant bit of kit that solved a massive problem for us."

Robert Davies – Owner

The installation allowed them to pass their next environmental health inspection with ease and  improved staff comfort, contributing to a 10% reduction in team turnover in the following six months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • This unit is heavy (70kg); ensure it is installed on a solid, load-bearing wall by at least two qualified people.
  • A qualified electrician must handle the connection to the 230V mains supply to ensure safety and  compliance.
  • Position the canopy at the recommended height above your cooking appliances for optimal fume capture.
  • Ensure there is adequate space around the unit for air to recirculate freely and  for easy access for maintenance.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior daily with a soft cloth and  appropriate cleaner to prevent grease build-up.
  • The primary grease filters must be checked and  cleaned regularly. Most can be washed in a commercial dishwasher.
  • The carbon filters will need replacing periodically depending on usage. A reduction in odour removal is a key sign.
  • Check the integrated LED lights are working correctly and  keep them clean for maximum visibility.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Extractor

Not sure what to look for? Here are a few pointers to help you find the perfect ventilation solution for your kitchen.

Filtration vs. Extraction

This unit is a filtration system, meaning it cleans and  recirculates air. This is ideal for locations where you can't install ducting to vent air outside. Traditional extraction pulls air out of the building entirely.

Match the Size to Your Cookline

Your extraction canopy should always be slightly wider and  deeper than your cooking area to ensure it effectively captures all the steam, heat, and  fumes rising from your appliances.

Check the Airflow Rate

Measured in m³/sec or m³/hr, this tells you how much air the unit can process. Higher rates are needed for heavy-duty cooking like char-grilling, while lower rates are fine for light-duty work.

Consider the Noise Level

Kitchens are already noisy places. A unit with a lower decibel (dB) rating, like this one at 62dB, helps create a more comfortable and  less stressful working environment for your staff.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for smooth, stainless steel surfaces and  removable, dishwasher-safe filters. A system that’s easy to clean is more likely to be kept clean, ensuring it works efficiently and  safely.

How Does Recirculating Fume Filtration Actually Work?

Ever wondered how a Lincat extraction hood 1200mm can clean the air without an external vent? Think of it like a super-powered filter jug for your kitchen's atmosphere. Instead of just blowing smokey air outside, it sucks it in and  puts it through a rigorous cleaning process. First, the air passes through a baffle or mesh filter, which acts like a sieve to catch all the tiny droplets of grease and  fat. Then, the air is forced through a panel of activated carbon. This is the clever part – the carbon acts like a sponge for smells, trapping the odour molecules and  leaving the air fresh before it's recirculated back into the kitchen. It’s an all-in-one solution that cleans, de-greases, and  de-odorises, making it perfect for places where you can't just punch a hole in the wall.
