Ventilation for commercial kitchens that just works
Commercial kitchens run hot, fast, and can’t afford downtime. Your ventilation system needs to keep up with everything from quiet prep work to full-service dinner rush, all while meeting safety standards and keeping energy costs under control.
Our fan controllers are built for exactly this kind of environment—reliable, adaptable, and designed to handle the heat and humidity that come with commercial cooking.
The challenges you’re managing
Variable cooking loads. A breakfast service looks nothing like a Saturday night rush. Your extraction system needs to match what’s actually happening on the line, not just run flat out all the time.
Energy costs that add up fast. Running exhaust fans at full speed 12 hours a day burns through electricity. In a tight-margin business, every kilowatt matters.
Compliance and safety. You need proper ventilation to meet health and safety standards, but you also need flexibility to adjust when the kitchen’s use changes.
Maintenance and reliability. When equipment fails during service, it’s not just an inconvenience—it can shut down the kitchen. You need systems that work day after day without constant babysitting.
Integration with existing setups. New kitchens are one thing, but retrofitting or upgrading existing systems means working with what’s already there.
Solutions built for commercial kitchens
Extraction that matches your cooking
Not every meal service needs maximum extraction. Our Speed Controllers let kitchen staff adjust fan speed based on what’s actually cooking. Quiet prep work? Dial it down. Full grill service? Crank it up.
All our controllers let you set a minimum speed during installation, so staff can’t slow the fans down too far. They get the control they need without compromising safety or compliance.
Automatic ventilation control
For kitchens with multiple cooking stations or appliances, our Current Sensors detect when equipment is actually being used and adjust extraction accordingly. When that big burner fires up, the extraction kicks in automatically. When it’s off, the system dials back.
This works brilliantly for commercial rangehoods. The sensor can tell the difference between just the lights being on versus the fan running, so you’re only boosting extraction when it’s actually needed. No manual switching, no forgetting to turn things on or off.
Pair a Current Sensor with a Run-On Timer and the extraction keeps going after cooking stops—clearing all the heat and smoke before shutting down. This is especially useful at the end of service when you want to clear the air but don’t want fans running all night.
Set and forget air balancing
For larger kitchens with multiple extraction points, getting the airflow balance right matters. Too much extraction in one area pulls air from where you need it. Our Speed Limiters let you set the exact speed for each fan during commissioning and lock it in.
Mount them on the fan, dial in the right airflow, and they stay there. Perfect for air balancing across a complex kitchen setup.
Integration with building management systems
Many commercial kitchens run as part of larger facilities with centralised building management. Our Variable Speed Drives integrate seamlessly with BMS or PLC systems using standard 0-10V or 2-20mA control signals.
Set your minimum and maximum speeds, then let your building automation adjust fan speed based on kitchen occupancy, temperature sensors, or scheduled service times. The system responds automatically without anyone touching a switch.
Precision control for modern systems
Working with EC fans or other variable speed equipment? Our 10k Pots give you the precise control these systems need. Simple to install, simple to adjust, and compatible with the modern kitchen equipment you’re already using.
Why commercial contractors and kitchen designers work with us
Built for tough environments. Our controllers handle the heat, humidity, and constant use that come with commercial kitchens. They’re designed to keep working when conditions get rough.
Australian-made with real support. When you call us with a question or issue, you’re talking to the people who designed and built these products. We can help you troubleshoot, customise for unusual setups, or repair units if needed.
Two-year warranty. Hospitality equipment takes a beating. We stand behind our products with a proper warranty.
Customisation when standard doesn’t fit. Every kitchen is different. If you need something modified or purpose-built for a specific application, talk to us. We can make it happen.
Meet codes without overthinking it. Our controllers help you tick the compliance boxes for ventilation standards while giving you the flexibility to run efficiently.
Common setups that work well
For restaurants with variable service levels, Speed Controllers give kitchen staff the control they need while keeping minimum extraction rates safe.
In hotels or large facilities, Variable Speed Drives connected to a BMS automate everything based on occupancy and scheduled meal times.
For kitchens with high-output appliances, Current Sensors paired with booster fans ensure extraction ramps up exactly when it’s needed.
Multi-station kitchens benefit from Speed Limiters on each extraction point to balance airflow across the entire space.
