Services
Commercial kitchen extraction
We design and install bespoke stainless steel extraction systems for commercial kitchens. Our solutions include canopy hoods, ductwork, and filtration units that comply with health and safety regulations. Each system incorporates baffle filters, carbon filtration, and gas interlock integration to ensure safe and efficient operation for restaurants, cafes, and catering facilities.
Gas interlock systems
Our BS6173-compliant gas interlock systems prevent carbon monoxide build-up in commercial kitchens. The installations feature airflow monitoring switches and automatic gas shut-off valves that ensure safety while maintaining operational efficiency. We provide both new installations and upgrades to existing systems to meet current gas safety regulations for catering environments.
Firemac ductwork
As certified Firemac fabricators, we install fire-rated ductwork systems tested to BS476 and EN1366 standards. Our fire-resistant ducting solutions provide up to four hours' protection for commercial kitchen extraction and car park ventilation systems. The installations use UK-manufactured Firemac FM fabric applied to steel ductwork during fabrication for guaranteed compliance.
Ventilation maintenance
We offer scheduled maintenance programmes for commercial extraction systems, including filter replacement and component inspections. Our engineers service both AVE-installed and third-party systems, providing preventative maintenance to avoid breakdowns. The service includes G4 panel filter changes, carbon filter replacements, and compliance certification for insurance requirements.
Extraction cleaning
Our professional cleaning service removes grease and debris from commercial kitchen extraction systems. We perform deep cleans at recommended intervals based on usage levels, from every three months for high-intensity kitchens to annual cleans for lighter use. All cleaning operations include certification to meet insurance and hygiene standards for commercial catering environments.

Having spent time trying to get so called lager companies from our area to do work on our kitchen ,from the time that we started with AVE it was handle quickly , a competitive quote given and the work was done in a very professional manner by experienced team who completed the work in one day rather than two as originally planned by them working through breaks etc. I have been in the hotel business for over 52 years and would not hesitate to recommend them .

I honestly cannot recommend Josh and AVE Ventilation enough, Josh and his team worked tirelessly to ensure our system was installed on time and to the right specification for our hazardous area. The AVE team were professional and knowledgeable, always happy to go over plans and adjust at the last minute which is exactly what we needed given the complex nature of our site. I look forward to working with Josh on future projects.

John was very knowledgeable and we decided to use AVE even though they were more expensive. We are absolutely thrilled with the product. Our kitchen heat is reduced by 90%.
Josh that fitted the system is a really nice guy, customer friendly and very skilled. He finished on time with minimal mess. We highly recommend these guys. Thank you so much.

AVE came recommended and it has been a pleasure to work them. It is hard to find reliable, trustworthy and polite contractors and they are all of these things. The work was completed in record time and with no mess. Despite him having to go in the loft to remove a large fan and work around our kitchen staff to install a new timer we hardly noticed Josh was there!
