Flame Gard Type III Hood Filter

The performance of any commercial kitchen ventilation system relies heavily on the type of hood filters you use. If you want to maximize your filter’s available capture area and increase the free area of your hood filter, there’s nothing better than Flame Gard Type III frameless hood filters.

Flame Gard frameless filters are designed to get grease out of your ventilation system before it has a chance to enter the ductwork. As with most grease hood filters, the Flame Gard frameless filter uses baffles to divert and collect fats, oils and grease effluent from a variety of cooking applications from griddles to grills and woks to fryers. Once the grease is collected, it can be easily removed.
