Installation of a split system in the kitchen
It is not recommended to install traditional split air conditioning systems in the kitchen, as they are not designed to handle the conditions there. The filters in these systems do not capture oil extracts, which can cause the evaporator plates to become quickly clogged with grease. This can lead to poor heat exchange, resulting in condensation getting past the pan and causing leaks in the indoor unit.
If you already have split systems installed in your kitchen, it is best to turn them off when you are frying fish or baking. Instead, use a powerful hood ventilator to remove smoke and moisture from the air. This will help to prevent the system from becoming clogged and causing problems.
However, if you want to ensure good ventilation in your kitchen, a ducted air conditioner is the best option. While this may cost more upfront, it will provide better performance and more efficient cooling in the long run. Ducted systems can also be used to provide heating in cold weather.Fresh air supply from outside the building
Removal of burning, unpleasant odors and hot air
Capture of oil extracts with special filters
Cooling and air purification in several rooms at the same time
More detailed
Like split systems, they consist of two units: an external compressor-condenser and an internal evaporative one. However, the indoor unit is installed discreetly: either in a utility room or under a suspended ceiling, connected to the outdoor unit through special duct systems. In this case, ventilation is achieved by taking air through an intake grate in one area of the room and sending it to the indoor unit, while heated or cooled air is distributed to the room through a separate grid at another point. The air flows through an air duct system hidden from users' eyes in the suspended ceiling.
Ducted air conditioner ventilation systems typically have several filters that provide varying degrees of air purification, ranging from coarse to more thorough. These devices are commonly found in industrial facilities, restaurants, offices, and administrative buildings.
Installation
Recently, more expensive but efficient ducted climate control systems have been installed in residential apartments and homes, as they allow for precise temperature control over even small areas. It is important to create a proper installation plan for these systems.
When installed in kitchens, ducted devices not only capture all fumes and exhaust them outside, but they also remove unpleasant odors associated with cooking.Of course, maintaining duct systems is more expensive than split systems, as you also need to clean the ducts. This should be done at least once a year. In addition to this, specialists will remove dust, dirt, grease, various resins, poplar fluff, as well as mold and mildew from the filters, air ducts, and heat exchanger.
