Spark Arrestors
If your kitchen contains a specialty or solid fuel application, such as a charcoal bar-b-que or wood-fired oven, it may create airborne sparks and embers. Combat this additional fire hazard using stainless steel filters with spark arrestor screens. Spark arrestors prevent hot embers from entering the baffle filter and igniting oily residue in your HVAC system, further increasing fire safety.
Spark arrestor baffle filters cannot be purchased online with locking handles or in 10″ x 20″ size, but please contact us for a quote if you need one of these configurations.
