Kitchen Heating and Ventilation

A certain amount of heat will come from food preparation, but an additional, controllable form will be required to keep the temperature comfortable and safe to work in.

Radiators and electric heaters will take up some space and need to be carefully positioned.

Air in kitchens quickly becomes contaminated during cooking and washing, therefore adequate ventilation should be built into the room. Windows, cooker canopies and extraction systems are all possibilities.
