Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a technique for installing a ventilation system in a minimalistic way. It achieves efficient air removal in the kitchen and bathroom by utilizing unused areas in the building. The invention simplifies or eliminates the required electrical components. The technique involves using metal ductwork or a gasket system in the floor of the building to remove air from the plenum, which is the main air supply in a building. This simplifies the installation process and reduces the chance of water or debris getting into the system during operation. Overall, the invention minimizes installation requirements and optimizes air removal.

Problems solved by technology

As such, typical retrofit ventilation system installations can be complicated and costly.

Abstract

A ventilation system comprising a plenum below the lower shelf of a cabinet combined with ductwork and special fan applications designed to evacuate air from the interior to the exterior of a building. The system is designed to eliminate issues normally encountered when retrofitting a ventilation system into an existing building.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of Provisional Patent Application 62 / 603,514, Filing date Jun. 5, 2017 Confirmation No. 9475.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The invention relates to ventilation systems such as those typically installed in kitchens and bathrooms which are designed to exhaust air from inside a building to the outside through an opening in a wall or roof of the building. Due to the installation requirements, these types of ventilation systems are typically included when the building is being constructed. Retrofit installations require a considerable amount of reconstruction in order to create the required opening, install the fan and switches and bring electric service to the unit. The present invention is designed to eliminate many of these installation problems.[0003]Typical ventilation systems include a housing positioned within a building structure, such as an aperture in a wall or ceiling. The housing is generally secur...
