The Importance of Cooking Ventilation

The main purpose of cooking ventilation is to capture the 

by-products of cooking. These by-products are heat, steam, 

smoke, odor, hazardous gases, and grease. Without proper 

cooking ventilation, these by-products can cause a great deal 

of harm to the home. Vent-A-Hood

®

 range hoods exhaust 

all cooking by-products to the outside with the exception of 

GREASE, which is collected by the patented Magic Lung

®

 

blower system.

The Magic Lung Blower

®

 - How It Works

The Magic Lung

® 

internal blower system was originally patented 

in 1937. The Magic Lung

®

 pressurizes grease-laden air as it 

passes through the blower wheel and cools the grease from a 

vapor into a liquid. The centrifugal action of the Magic Lung

®

 

traps 99% of cooking grease without the use of messy and 

inefficient  wire  mesh  or  baffle  filters.  The  constant  speed 

centrifugal blower is also designed to create a pressure barrier, 

lowering the risk of an attic or wall fire.
