Engineered Ventilation for Modern Spaces
Indoor air can accumulate smoke, moisture, and volatile compounds during daily cooking and work tasks. A properly sized Canarm Exhaust Fan helps restore fresh air by pulling contaminants at the source, improving comfort and protecting finishes. In kitchens and utility areas, a balanced system reduces lingering odors and fogged windows while keeping temperatures more stable across adjoining rooms.
Performance You Can Quantify
Right-sizing matters. As a general guideline, target 6–12 air changes per hour for kitchens, workshops, and laundry rooms. Many residential hoods fall in the 200–400 CFM range, while commercial prep areas may require 600+ CFM depending on load and duct length. Noise also drives compliance—fans rated near 1–3 sones are typically quiet enough for routine use, encouraging occupants to keep ventilation running for 10–15 minutes after cooking. A Canarm Exhaust Fan with an efficient motor and well-matched ductwork can maintain steady airflow with less energy waste.
Design, Installation, and Upkeep Essentials
Capture improves when the fan or hood slightly overhangs the cooktop width and is mounted at the manufacturer’s recommended height. Keep ducts short, straight, and properly sized; every sharp elbow can reduce effective CFM. Use backdraft dampers to prevent outside air from sneaking in, and clean baffle or mesh filters monthly to maintain performance. Whether wall, roof, or inline, a Canarm Exhaust Fan paired with sealed metal ducting and periodic maintenance translates to cleaner surfaces, fewer odors, and consistent air quality gains over time.
