Commercial Kitchen Extraction
We design and install bespoke stainless steel extraction systems for commercial kitchens, ensuring compliance with DW172 and gas safety regulations. Our systems include baffle filters, carbon filtration, and tempered air solutions to maintain staff safety and equipment efficiency. Services cover full site surveys, CAD design, fabrication, and installation.
Gas Interlock Systems
Our gas interlock systems prevent CO2 buildup in kitchens by integrating ventilation with gas supply controls, complying with BS6173:2009 standards. We handle installation, testing, and certification to ensure safe operation for catering businesses and compliance with HSE guidelines.
Firemac Ductwork
We fabricate and install Firemac ductwork tested to BS476 and EN1366 standards, offering up to four hours of fire resistance. These systems are ideal for commercial kitchen extraction and car park ventilation, combining durability with regulatory compliance.

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!

Possibly the best customer support I have experience in both a professional and personal level in 20 years. The company came recommended however from my first conversation and subsequent visit I amazed at the professionalism and support that Josh Taylor (PM) and his team provided. All jobs were carried out to my exact specifications, on time and to top this up, I was assisted in repairing a 1500 fan without any additional charges. AVE are the type of business that will surpass your expectations every time you work with them.
