Description

  • A quality product unlike the usual cheap imports from abroad
  • All of our Baffle Filters are made to a very high standard.
  • They are designed in 430 catering grade polished stainless steel, which is very easy to clean and maintain.
  • They all include handles for easy removal and insertion and drain holes to allow the grease to escape into the drain channels of your canopy.
  • Dishwasher and De-Carboniser Proof
  • Smooth surface allows for deposited grease to run off via drainage holes to the collecting trays
  • Unique design concept reduces fire hazard with interlocking baffle walls which restrict the passage of flames into the ductwork. Although some images are AI generated they are a true representation of the product itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the function of a baffle filter in a commercial extraction canopy?

A baffle filter removes grease‑laden vapour from the airstream by forcing air to change direction rapidly. This causes grease particles to condense on the stainless‑steel surfaces before the air enters the ductwork.

Why are baffle filters used instead of mesh filters in commercial kitchens?

Baffle filters are non‑combustible, more durable, and significantly safer. Their design prevents flames from penetrating into ductwork, making them compliant with commercial fire‑safety requirements.

What material are commercial baffle filters made from?

They are typically manufactured from stainless steel, chosen for its heat resistance, corrosion resistance, hygiene compliance, and ability to withstand aggressive cleaning chemicals.

How does the airflow pattern inside a baffle filter work?

Air is forced through a series of interlocking baffles that create multiple directional changes. This turbulence separates grease from the air while maintaining a stable pressure drop across the filter.

Do baffle filters affect extraction performance?

Yes — but in a controlled way. Baffle filters introduce a predictable pressure drop, allowing engineers to size fans accurately. They maintain consistent airflow while ensuring grease removal and fire protection.

Are baffle filters suitable for high‑temperature or heavy‑grease environments?

Yes. Stainless‑steel baffle filters are designed for continuous operation above commercial cooking equipment such as fryers, chargrills, wok ranges, and combi ovens.

How often should baffle filters be cleaned?

Cleaning frequency depends on cooking load, but commercial practice is: • Daily for heavy frying or chargrilling • Weekly for moderate use Regular cleaning maintains airflow efficiency and hygiene compliance.

Can baffle filters be cleaned in a dishwasher?

Yes. Stainless‑steel baffle filters are dishwasher‑safe and can also be soaked in degreaser. They are designed for repeated cleaning cycles without degrading.

How are baffle filters installed and removed?

They simply slot into the canopy’s filter housing and can be removed without tools. This allows quick daily cleaning and fast replacement during maintenance.

Do baffle filters comply with commercial fire‑safety requirements?

Yes. Stainless‑steel baffle filters are non‑combustible and designed to prevent flame penetration into ductwork, making them compliant with commercial kitchen ventilation safety standards.
