Quiet Commercial Ranges

Large, commercial-style ranges produce a lot of steam, odors, and noise. Take care of all three with a powerful ventilator equipped with a "muffler." Fantech's ventilation system yields top power -- up to 1,200 CFMs -- plus quiet performance. Stainless-steel range hood liners in 36- and 48-inch sizes are wired for use with in-line or exterior-mount fans, installed away from the living area to reduce noise. LD Series hood silencers (the muffler) can typically reduce perceived sound by more than half. You can actual have a normal conversation while the fan runs.
