Simcohood

Simcohood makes commercial kitchen exhaust canopies and ductless exhaust hood systems: the stainless steel hoods that capture heat, steam, smoke and grease above cooking equipment. Commercial Kitchen Appliances carries the Simcohood range, from standard wall canopies in a run of widths to ductless hood systems and a pizza oven canopy.

SH series exhaust canopies

The Simcohood SH series is a range of stainless steel exhaust canopies 1000 mm deep, in widths from 1000 mm (the SH1000, the smallest in the series) up to 2800 mm. The wide spread of widths means the canopy can be matched closely to the cooking line beneath it. The SH series records width and depth but not height, so confirm the height with us when planning ceiling clearance and duct rise. Some canopies in the range are supplied without fans and ducting, so check each listing for what is included.

Custom and specialist canopies

The SHB3700 is a custom 700 x 1450 mm wall-mounted canopy fitted with honeycomb grease filters and a removable grease tray. The Simcohood pizza canopy is sized at 2200 x 1700 x 700 mm with a 75 mm gutter all around, for use above a pizza or bakery oven.

Ductless exhaust hood systems

A ductless, or recirculating, hood filters the air and returns it to the room instead of ducting it outside, which suits sites where running a duct to the roof is not possible. The Simcohood DH1500-850D is 1500 mm wide and 850 mm deep, and the DH1800-750D is 1800 mm wide and 750 mm deep, both 1400 mm high. Ductless hoods have limits on the type and size of appliance they can serve, and their filters need regular replacement, so check each listing and confirm suitability before ordering.

Planning kitchen ventilation

A canopy should overhang the cooking equipment beneath it so rising heat and grease are captured, and the extraction rate must suit the appliances under it. Ventilation is regulated: requirements depend on the appliances, the fuel and your local authority, so have a mechanical contractor design and install the system.

• Width. Match the canopy to the length of the cooking line, with overhang.
• Height. Confirm canopy height against the ceiling and duct route.
• Inclusions. Check whether fans and ducting are included.
• Ducted or ductless. Choose ductless only where the appliances suit it.
