iFAMS does...

Meets all relevant standards and regulations

IFAMS does more than satisfy the current relevant standards and regulations, Genesis products are progressive and forward-looking. We strive to provide solutions that are easily managed, cost effective and above all improve the health and well-being of the end users far beyond what current regulations demand.

Energy efficient

IFAMS will drastically improve energy efficiency in your commercial kitchen. By regulating ventilation to gas consumption, IFAMS will always provide the necessary fresh air for cooking and breathing while also ensuring maximum energy efficiency. The graphs below illustrate the dramatic difference IFAMS can make in your kitchen:

 
A typical fixed-velocity ventilation system   The revolutionary new IFAMS
  • Ventilation is fixed at a high velocity
  • Yellow area indicates unnecessary electricity consumption
  • Wasted electricity = wasted money
  • Potential staff discomfort
 
  • Ventilation and gas use monitored by IFAMS
  • Ventilation is regulated to gas use
  • No wasted electricity or incomplete combustion
  • Save £££ on energy bills
  • Staff comfort
  • Peace of mind

By ensuring proper ventilation throughout cooking, iFAMS will also save you hundreds of KWh of gas! Since fan speeds are controlled automatically in proportion to gas-use, staff are unable to use cooking equipment to heat the environment. Using iFAMS in conjunction with more efficient forms of space-heating, eg. 2KW heat lamps vs. 38KW range, will not only save you £££s on your gas bills but also complement the superior air quality that iFAMS brings to your kitchen environment.

With IFAMS, there are noticeable energy efficiency improvements from day one :

We configure all sites individually. This means that Air Quality and energy efficiency are optimised for your specific commercial kitchen environment in every case. Installing IFAMS in your kitchen alleviates the need to worry about symptoms of Sick Building Syndrome (read more >). IFAMS is an automatic fresh air management system and so prevents kitchen staff from tampering with ventilation controls - most notably in the winter when vents are often turned down in kitchens "to keep the heat in". The following graph illustrates why this is dangerous:

 
  • Ventilation is set to an insufficient level
  • Insufficiently vented gas causes incomplete combustion
  • Build up of dangerous Carbon Monoxide
  • Supply of fresh air for breathing is compromised
  • Gas wasteage = higher fuel costs
  • Poorer Environmental Impact rating (read more >)

IFAMS does not allow kitchen staff to decrease ventilation in this manner and instead automatically regulates the vent workload to the gas consumption, meaning that your ventilation levels are always sufficient yet never wasteful.

Obtain the peace of mind that comes with knowing your staff are safe, healthy, happy and productive and that neither you nor your kitchen staff will ever need to configure the unit yourselves.
