GREASE LOCK HOOD FILTER SYSTEM

GREASE LOCK ®

SLOWS GREASE BUILDUP

A patented, disposable filter pad and metal frame with a built-in baffle on back. Features unique fire-resistant fiber, delivering exceptional grease filtration efficiency.

GREASE LOCK IS THE FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE

Grease Lock ® is your first line of defense in reducing the risk of flames entering the hood and flue. The patented disposable filter pad and metal frame reduce the frequency of hood cleaning, maintenance on the roof, and baffle filter cleaning. It addresses all life stages of grease as it travels through your kitchen exhaust system. Our product is designed to capture and remove a high percentage of the total grease particulate emissions produced during commercial kitchen cooking operations and is constructed of an all-natural, heat-resistant fiber that is sustainable. We have developed the perfect balance between grease filtration and airflow resistance within our Grease Lock ® product.

Grease Lock ® is a patented disposable filter pad and metal frame that is used in place of traditional baffle filters. It features a unique heat-resistant fiber, designed to deliver exceptional grease filtration.

HOW IT WORKS

When cooking, grease becomes airborne and travels into your exhaust system via vapors and smoke.

Despite common misconceptions, the primary purpose of traditional vent hood filters is to serve as a flame barrier between the appliances and the grease-laden hood and flue. Most vent hood filters do collect some airborne grease – typically no more than 25% – simply because they are in the airflow path. The rest passes into the hood, flue, fan and rooftop.

BENEFITS OF GREASE LOCK ®

BENEFITS OF
GREASE LOCK ®

INCREASES ROOF LIFE

Grease Lock ® captures the grease before it enters the exhaust system, reducing the grease particles emitting through the rooftop fan. The necessity of rooftop containment systems is virtually eliminated. This can result in cost savings while potentially extending the life of the roof itself.​

INCREASES FIRE SAFETY

Grease Lock ® filters capture the grease before entering the exhaust system. This greatly reduces the contaminants that enter the exhaust hood, duct work, fans and roofs, helping to reduce the risk of a catastrophic fire.

SAVES LABOR

Many commercial kitchens clean their baffle filters nightly or weekly. With Grease Lock filters, the metal baffle filters need to be cleaned only once a month.

COMPOSTABLE SUSTAINABLE

Grease Lock ® filters are all natural. The filter media is carbon-neutral and will break down in the landfill along with the internal support frame.​

REDUCES HOOD CLEANINGS

Hood and duct cleaning is reduced by nearly 75% of the current cleaning frequency…less frequent cleaning means less inconvenience, labor and expenses. For 24-hour kitchens, it also means fewer business interruptions.

SAVES WATER & CHEMICALS

Reducing the current exhaust/hood cleaning schedule along with reduced baffle filter cleanings greatly reduces the amount of water and chemicals used to maintain a clean system.
