Cooking and cooking burners emit pollutants that can adversely affect indoor air quality in residences and significantly impact occupant health. Effective kitchen exhaust ventilation can reduce exposure to cooking-related air pollutants as an enabling step to healthier, low-energy homes. This book identifies barriers to the widespread adoption of kitchen exhaust ventilation technologies and practice and proposes a suite of strategies to overcome these barriers.
Dwellings -- Heating and ventilation.
Kitchens -- Heating and ventilation.
TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING -- Construction -- Heating, Ventilation & Air Conditioning.
