Our new ventilation system in the kitchen is amazing
Working with a large deep fat fryer in the back room comes with a lot of drawbacks. I would never have a single of these things in a home, because they cause such a mess and generate a brutal smell. At work I have no choice in the matter. This steakhouse is famous for its french fries, my good friends and I make several types of french fries, including a sweet potato fry which is quite yummy. I have to admit that after laboring here for a couple of years, I have stopped eating fried foods altogether, now they turn my stomach. As poor as the heat can be while resting over the fryer, the worst aspect is the indoor air conditions. The entire dining room reeks of grease and scorched fryer oil, which is why the bosses put in a fancy new ventilation system to clear the air. I have to say that our new ventilation system has made all the difference in the world. The air quality in the dining area smells as fresh as a Summer breeze, even when I am resting right over the large deep fat fryer. There has never been a/c in the dining room, but surprisingly the new air vents help with that, too. By lowering the humidity, eliminating the grease and smoke it makes the indoor air quality so much more fair that I don’t mind the heat. To make sure this never gets worse, I have been given a new duty – every weekend I have to deep clean all the HVAC ducts and the exhaust vents for the dining room. Wiping down the inside of grease traps is not fun, but it’s worth it.
