Press Release
Rational, the leading manufacturer of combi-steamer technology, announced the launch of the new UltraVent and UltraVent Plus recirculating hoods for SelfCookingCenter models 61/101 and 62/102. The UltraVent absorbs and dissipates steam, and the UltraVent Plus adds special filters that capture grease and smoke that occur during grilling and roasting. Equipped with the appropriate UltraVent, a SelfCookingCenter can be used in visible locations such as front cooking areas.
We are pleased to present a new recirculating hood portfolio for the North American market. The technology in the UltraVent absorbs and dissipates steam. Rational customers now have the flexibility to add an UltraVent or UltraVent Plus to their stacked combi-duo units. This means they can now have the opportunity to stack units in areas they may not have been able to before, such as the front cooking area of their establishment, which in turn creates a more efficient use of kitchen space.
In addition to UltraVent condensation technology, the UltraVent Plus is also equipped with special filters that capture grease as well as bothersome smoke, resulting from grilling or roasting. This means the appliance can be used in critical locations such as front cooking areas.
The UltraVent Plus also automatically indicates when it is time to change the pre-filter or main filter. Filter cleanliness levels are constantly monitored. The installation of both recirculating hoods is simple and it can be retrofitted at any time. An external connection is not required for those air-recirculation hoods but local standards and regulations for ventilation systems must be adhered to.
An ergonomic installation of the table units 61 and 62 in combination with a recirculate hoods is guaranteed by the Rational base cabinet US III Version UltraVent. The height of these base cabinets is adapted to be able to operate the unit with proper clearance
