Restaurant Hood Systems

There are 2 different types of Vent Hoods and the question you need to ask is: Will you be exhausting grease-laden air or non-grease-laden air?

Type I-Grease Hoods

Type I kitchen hoods are used over cooking equipment producing grease-laden overflow and are available in a variety of different styles and configurations.

Type II- Heat and Condensate Hoods

Type II kitchen hoods are designed to capture heat and/or condensate from non-grease-producing appliances such as ovens and dishwashers.

Our clients speak

I was in need of fire extinguisher servicing

I was in need of fire extinguisher servicing and didn't have an amazing experience with the last company I attempted to use. I say attempted because that's all I ever accomplished with them..an attempt. I was referred to this company and was immediately more welcomed. Michelle was nothing short of informative and precise. Job done to full satisfaction. They "put the fires out" around here! Awesome group!

Fernando came by my restaurant Pig Beach BBQ

Fernando came by my restaurant Pig Beach BBQ for a fire safety code inspection. HHe was extremely helpful and honest about the job that needed to be done. 10 out of 10 recommended to a friend

We work with Luis at Preventative Fire

We work with Luis at Preventative Fire on an annual basis to check all our fire extinguishers, eye wash stations and first aid kits. As the largest woodworking and finish shop servicing the marine industry in Palm Beach County, safety is paramount to our employees. The Preventative Fire team communicates effectively before and during visits, shows up on time and wors quickly once onsite. Very happy with their process and would recommend to any business that gets spot checks from Fire Marshalls and OSHA.
