Restaurant Kitchen Make-Up Air

FACILITY: Restaurants located through out the U.S and Canada

PROBLEMS:

• Restaurants need tempered outside make-up air to replace indoor air exhausted from the restaurant's kitchen ventilation system. If replacement air doesn't come into the kitchen, the "used" air does not go out the exhaust hood and problems begin.
• Insufficient make-up air will cause the building pressure to become too negative. This creates indoor air quality problems because the kitchen ventilation system will not adequately exhaust all cooking fumes.
• Sufficient make-up air must also be provided to the restaurant in order to prevent air infiltration and odors from the kitchen reaching customers in the dining area.
• The restaurant kitchen designer wants to specify make-up air heating equipment from an experienced, nationally known manufacturer certified to the latest safety standards.
• The HVAC contractor wants a make-up air unit that is easy to install and set-up with readily available factory support when the unexpected happens.
• The restaurant owner needs a safe, reliable direct gas-fired make-up air heater that is energy efficient and will help minimize his operating costs.

SOLUTIONS:

• Genuine Cambridge® direct gas-fired make-up air heaters are recognized as the best and most energy efficient way to provide tempered make-up air for restaurant kitchen applications.
• Direct gas-fired make-up air heaters used for commercial kitchen applications in the U.S and Canada must now be certified to a new ANSI Safety Standard Z83.4/CSA 3.7. Cambridge Engineering helped to write this safety standard and was the first manufacturer certified to it.
• Cambridge make-up air heaters have external profile damper adjustment and a built-in pressure gauge to reduce contractor start-up time and ensure optimal heater performance.
• The patented Cambridge stainless steel gas burner and flame rod reduce maintenance and extend service life.
• Cambridge "special solutions" include cooling options and variable frequency drive (VFD) controls for increased energy efficiency.

RESULTS:

• Architect/Engineers, contractors and restaurant owners have specified and used energy efficient Cambridge direct gas-fired make-up air heaters for commercial kitchen applications since the 1970's.
