Vent-Axia impressed the judges in the ‘Commercial / Industrial Ventilation Product’ category at the prestigious HVR (Heating and Ventilating Review) Awards 2012. The company, a leader in air management systems, was highly commended for its innovative Kitchen Axial Fan (KAF), announced at a glittering ceremony at The Grange St Paul's Hotel in London.
The judges for the third annual HVR Awards deliberated over a record number of entries this year. When drawing up a list of finalists the panel looked for innovation, outstanding technological achievements and service capabilities. As a result the robust KAF was recognised for its innovation and so featured in the final line up.
Following significant research and development the KAF is designed to operate reliably at elevated temperatures up to 70 deg C while utilising speed control to ensure efficiency. With impellers manufactured from die cast aluminium and fitted with narrow profiled blades the KAF provides the highest efficiency at the maximum airflow making the fan a cost effective kitchen solution.
Meanwhile, innovative reversed airflow helps to cool the fan’s motor allowing it to work reliably at elevated temperatures. The robust motor has ribbed aluminium body castings and is designed to be mounted at the front of the fan towards the airstream to ensure maximum cooling airflow over the motor.
“We are delighted to have been highly commended in the HVR Awards. It’s great to see the KAF gaining industry recognition” said David Cook, Product Marketing Manager – Non-Residential, Vent-Axia. “The commercial kitchen environment is a challenging one and demands quality, reliable ventilation. The KAF is a powerful yet compact fan that provides a cost effective controllable ventilation solution that’s ideal for operating reliably in these harsh conditions.”
This announcement marks the fourth industry award the British manufacturer has recently been recognised in, with Vent-Axia also reaching the final of the Manufacturer Awards, as well as having won the ‘Innovative Residential/Domestic Product of the Year’ award at the Electrical Industry Awards, and being shortlisted in The Energy Awards, with winners to be announced soon.
