The Downdraft Vent Module from Vollrath

Vollrath’s Downdraft Vent Module, winner of a 2014 Kitchen Innovations Award, provides full front-of-the-house cooking without a vent hood. Energy-efficient induction cooking in a sleek stand-alone station impresses chefs and guests alike.   Guests love to see creative chefs in action. Cooking presentations and food prep visibility is a very popular trend that creates customer loyalty.

This system incorporates a downdraft vent for grease-laden air and a foodguard with an integrated ANSUL system for both fire containment and suppression. The Downdraft Vent Module serves as a stand-alone station with several features for emissions control and fire safety. Filters also control odor for a more pleasant cooking presentation.
