A: Lower installation cost - because ventless deep fryers don’t require hoods or venting, the overall cost of installation is limited to having the right type of electrical socket. Hood/vent installation can cost anywhere from $6,000-30,000 depending on the scope of installation. Longer Oil Life – Ventless deep fryers have to be fully enclosed to ensure no fumes escape the fryer unit. This enclosure prevents light, air and dust from getting into your fryer oil, the largest factors in oil deterioration. This means your oil will last longer and taste better as you fry up food for your guests. Consistent Quality – Because they’re fully enclosed, most ventless fryers are automated. This means you remove human error from the list of variables that will effect your fried food outcome. So you’ll have consistent product and can ensure that your guests are always enjoying the best food possible. Mobility – Since you didn’t have to install any hoods or venting for your ventless fryer, you have the ability to move your fryer to any location. Space Saver –Ventless fryers are compact and require no overhead space. They can often be placed on countertops or the floor depending on your needs and offer a wide range of flexibility. Employee Safety – Fully enclosed means there is never any contact with hot oil, the number one cause of kitchen burns. Additionally, most ventless fryers come equipped with their own fire suppression system. Reduced Insurance – With a fryer that is ventless, you’ll find many insurance companies will reduce your insurance cost. This is due to the reduced safety risk that a fully enclosed unit provides.
