Commercial Ventilation Installs Telford Businesses Can Depend On
An effective ventilation system is an essential part of a safe, comfortable and efficient commercial kitchen. Cooking equipment can generate significant levels of heat, steam, grease, smoke and airborne contaminants. Without suitable extraction, these can quickly affect working conditions, surrounding rooms and the overall operation of the kitchen.
PP Catering Services provides complete commercial ventilation installs for Telford businesses, from initial planning and system design through to equipment installation and ongoing support.
Every kitchen is different. The correct ventilation solution will depend on several factors, including:
- The size and layout of the kitchen
- The type and position of the cooking equipment
- The amount of heat, steam and grease produced
- The kitchen’s operating hours
- The number of people working in the space
- Available ductwork routes
- The proposed extract discharge position
- The need for replacement or make-up air
- Noise, odour and environmental considerations
Our team will discuss your requirements and help identify a suitable system for your premises and day-to-day operations.
Experienced Ventilation Engineers, Telford Businesses Can Call On
With decades of experience in commercial catering equipment and kitchen services, PP Catering Services understands how ventilation must work alongside the rest of a professional kitchen.

We can become involved during the early planning stages of a project or assess an existing kitchen where the current ventilation system is no longer performing as required.

Commercial Kitchen Extraction Systems
A commercial kitchen extraction system is designed to capture and remove heat, steam, smoke, grease and cooking fumes from the working area.
The extraction canopy is normally positioned above the main cooking appliances. Air is drawn through the canopy and filters, then passes through the ductwork and is discharged at a suitable external location.
The size and specifications of a system must match those of the appliances beneath it. A small café kitchen, for example, will have very different extraction requirements from those of a busy restaurant, takeaway, or large production kitchen.
A properly planned system can help:
- Improve air quality within the kitchen
- Remove excess heat and steam
- Reduce the spread of cooking smells
- Create a more comfortable working environment
- Control grease and airborne contaminants
- Support the safe operation of catering equipment
- Protect surrounding areas from fumes and odours
PP Catering Services can assist with new extraction systems and the replacement or improvement of existing installations.
Air Handling Units
An air handling unit, commonly known as an AHU, helps circulate and condition air within a building. Depending on the system, an AHU may filter, heat, cool or regulate the air supplied to different areas of the premises.
Air handling is particularly important where a commercial extraction system removes large volumes of air. A balanced ventilation design may need to introduce replacement air to prevent uncomfortable draughts, excessive negative pressure or reduced extraction performance.
We can install, service and repair air handling units as part of a wider commercial kitchen ventilation project.
Heat Recovery Units
Heat recovery units are designed to recover useful heat from outgoing air and transfer it to incoming fresh air. This can reduce unnecessary heat loss while maintaining controlled ventilation.
The suitability of heat recovery will depend on the premises, the type of system and how the building is used. Our team can discuss the available options and determine whether a heat recovery system is appropriate for your project.
Mechanical Extraction and Ventilation
PP Catering Services also works with mechanical extraction systems that remove stale, humid, or contaminated air from commercial premises.
This can include Continuous Mechanical Extract ventilation and Mechanical Extract Ventilation systems. These solutions may be used in kitchens, preparation rooms, storage spaces and other areas requiring controlled airflow.
The correct system will depend on the size and purpose of the room, occupancy levels and the amount of heat or moisture being generated.
New Kitchen and Refurbishment Projects
Ventilation should be considered at the earliest possible stage of a commercial kitchen project. Planning the system alongside the kitchen layout can help avoid conflicts with catering equipment, lighting, ceilings, walls and essential building services.
For new kitchens and refurbishment projects, our team can assist with:
- Discussing the intended use of the kitchen
- Reviewing the proposed equipment and layout
- Assessing the available ventilation and duct routes
- Developing a suitable extraction design
- Providing a clear quotation
- Coordinating the ventilation installation
- Testing the completed system
- Providing ongoing servicing and support
We can also assist with the wider kitchen project, including the supply of catering equipment, stainless-steel fabrication, and hygienic wall cladding. This provides a more coordinated approach and reduces the number of separate contractors involved.
Replacement and Upgraded Ventilation Systems
Commercial kitchens change over time. New appliances may be installed, menus may expand, or the number of meals being prepared may increase. These changes can place additional demand on a ventilation system that was designed for the kitchen’s original use.
Signs that your system may require inspection include:
- Heat or steam is building up in the kitchen
- Cooking fumes escaping beyond the canopy
- Poor airflow or weak extraction
- Persistent cooking smells
- Excessive noise or vibration
- Staff experiencing an uncomfortable working environment
- Fans or controls operating inconsistently
- A system that no longer suits the current cooking equipment
Our ventilation engineers can assess the installation and advise whether servicing, repairs, alterations or a replacement system may be required.

Regular servicing can help maintain extraction performance and identify developing mechanical problems before they result in an unexpected breakdown.
PP Catering Services provides servicing and repairs for commercial extraction and ventilation equipment throughout Telford and Shropshire. Maintenance can be scheduled around your business’s needs and the demands placed on the system.
