Ventilated Ceiling Solutions
At Corsair Engineering, we design and install ventilated ceiling systems built for the demands of modern commercial kitchens. We’ve helped businesses across the UK create cleaner, safer, and more efficient kitchen environments using smart, effective ceiling ventilation.
Overview
Our ventilated ceiling systems offer a practical alternative to hood-based systems, particularly in open-plan and high-spec commercial kitchens where layout, hygiene, and aesthetics matter.
- Stainless steel construction, easy to clean and maintain
- Ductwork and equipment kept hidden for a clean, professional finish
- Reduces obstructions in the workplace
- Energy efficient
- Excellent containment of pollutants
- Improved indoor air quality
- Highly efficient grease extraction
- Fire suppression systems can be integrated for extra protection
Ceiling Ventilation Systems for Commercial Kitchens
We offer two main types of ventilated ceiling systems to suit different kitchen sizes, airflow needs, and budgets.
Atlantic Ceiling Systems
Our Atlantic ceiling systems are fully modular and ideal for medium to large commercial kitchens. These systems offer both extraction and supply air through a continuous ceiling grid, built using high quality stainless steel panels.
Air is extracted at the cooking line and replaced with tempered fresh air at strategic supply zones, maintaining airflow balance while keeping temperatures under control.
Atlantic systems are:
- Durable and easy to clean
- Designed to reduce noise
- Manufactured to fit your kitchen layout
They’re a great fit for open kitchen designs, where visibility, hygiene and professional appearance are key.
Plenum Ceiling Ventilation Systems
Plenum ceiling systems work slightly differently. They use a concealed space (the ‘plenum’) above the kitchen ceiling to channel extraction and supply air through integrated filters.
They’re particularly effective in larger spaces or where airflow needs to be carefully balanced across multiple cook lines or zones.
Plenum systems allow for:
- High extraction rates with lower noise
- Flexible zoning of airflow
- A discreet look with minimal visual disruption
They are often used for high capacity or multi-station kitchens where managing airflow is critical.
Meeting Compliance with DW172
All our systems are designed and built in full accordance with all workplace, building and safety regulations, including DW172 – the recognised UK standard for kitchen ventilation.
