Proximity (Backshelf) Hoods
Accurex proximity hoods have an industry leading five dimensions of adjustment which make them the perfect solution for low ceilings and light and medium duty cooking applications. The Accurex proximity hood sits close to the cooking equipment allowing for lower exhaust rates and smaller hoods. Proximity hoods are designed for grease and heat laden effluent (Type I Hood) and are shorter in height and depth than a canopy hood. The name "Proximity" or "Backshelf" refers to the close location of the hood with respect to the cooking equipment. In addition, Accurex proximity hoods have an optional plate shelf and/or pass-over enclosure to meet your varying design constraints
