Airtherm Engineering's track record of successful and efficient projects was demonstrated by the recent installation of our 'Can-iVent' island kitchen canopy system at Colegrave Primary School in Newham, London.
The project involved the successful liaising between Fowler Martin, AC Preou Limited and Newham Council (consultant, contractor and client, respectively).
Airtherm Engineering Limited liaised with both the consultant and the contractor at all times, attending site meetings, providing comprehensive technical submission, including calculations and drawings for approval prior to manufacture of the equipment.
Project Details
Consultant: Fowler Martin
Client: AC Preou Ltd
Sector: Education
Products: Can-iVent System
Equipment: Cooking Equipment
Application: Input & Extract System
Product Range
Our product range extends from simple condense canopies, extract only, island or wall mounted canopies, through to our air injection island systems allowing both input and extract. If required, the input air can be pre-heated for additional internal staff comfort during the cold winter months. All products can be configured to suit each individual application.
Manufacture
All canopies are manufactured from 304 (En 1.4301) or 316 (En 1.4401) stainless steel where specified and are suitably braced to prevent product distortion. All joints are welded and polished.
Our Canopies are cut, punched and folded into sub sections and factory assembled by means of computer controlled seam welds, and non-visible mechanical fixings. Systems are manufactured to the strict guidelines of DW/172, British Standards and conform to HSE for commercial kitchen ventilation. Wall mounted or island canopies can be manufactured to meet almost any dimension but typically 1000mm to 8000mm long. The system ductwork is manufactured and installed to incorporate cleaning and maintenance access doors to fully comply with DW/144 & TR/19 standards.
Canopy Lighting
The units are designed and manufactured to deal with a wide ranging and varied commercial application and can deal with humidity, condense rich, as well as hot and greasy environments.
These units are normally recessed into the canopy ceiling providing easy cleaning and maintenance of the unit exterior. This also helps to greatly reduce the build-up of grease and other contaminates usually associated with the commercial kitchen environment.
Recessed Incandescent Units
• Approved for use in commercial kitchen applications
• Meet with guidelines for DW172 & HSE Guidelines
• Satin finished stainless steel matching faceplates for matching hood interiors
• Tempered prismatic glass diffusers
Fire Suppression System
The island kitchen canopy was fitted with a R102 Ansul fire suppression system which conforms to NFPA standards 17, 17a and 96 and is UL300 listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc .
The system was supplied with nozzles, detectors, cartridges, liquid agent, fusible links, pulley tress and elbows as required for the specific commercial kitchen application at Colegrave Primary School, Newham, London.

Airtherm have
completed the 1st phase installation of two ‘Wind-iVent’
natural ventilation systems to the newly completed single storey class rooms at The Coppice Primary school. The school is a two form entry school, though larger than the average primary school. The 2nd phase fix features a further six 1.2msq units for the hall area and a further six 1.1msq units serving the classrooms
This new installation of these two natural ventilation systems, through MVS Limited, has been designed and carefully selected from room data sheets provided to ensure an adequate ventilation rate for the occupants.
The natural ventilation systems have been designed in line with all current publications such as CIBSE guidelines, AM10 Natural Ventilation in commercial buildings and Building Bulletin 101. The terminal sizes were calculated using our new computer aided software package ‘Wind-iCalc’ and fully conforms to the CIBSE requirements.
Consultant: Stuart Associates
Client: MVS Limited
Sector: Education
Products: Wind-iVent Systems
Application: Balance Terminals
Product Range
The Airtherm “Wind-iVent” is a natural ventilation system operating on established aerodynamic principles. As external wind flows around the terminal itself, positive and negative pressure areas are generated. On the positive side air enters the louvres of the terminal and is directed down through the internal vanes into the room below allowing a fresh air supply to be delivered, while on the negative side the stack draws the stale unwanted air which is expelled through the terminal into the atmosphere.
Manufacture
The units are be manufactured in accordance with BS EN ISO 9001 and to suit the architectural and design parameters as indicated in the design specification and drawings. Internal airways are to be protected by incorporating anti-bird mesh to the terminal louvers. Our systems can be manufactured to achieve 99.8% effectiveness (class A) when tested with a simulate rainfall of 75mm/hour and wind speed of 15m/sec based on a free area of 55%.
Installation
Units can be installed on almost every roof type including flat, pitched and even on the roof apex where appropriate. The roof fabric of commercial applications has bearing on the openings and roof plates that are required to install the systems competently. We offer a roof plate solution for all situations, including self mount flashings and curb mount flashings with suitable upstands.
Features and Advantages of Wind-iVent:
- A fresh air supply for workers - proven to increase productivity & reduce staff sickness
- Naturally ventilated - reduce your energy costs and carbon footprint without the need for mechanical ventilation
- Night time purge of stale air - creating a fresh working environment for staff the following morning
- Better control of building temperature and CO² levels
- Free cooling
