Convotherm ConvoVent 4 Condensation Hood for 6.10 / 10.10

The Convotherm ConvoVent 4 is a condensation hood designed specifically for use with Convotherm combi ovens in the 6.10 and 10.10 configurations. Its purpose is straightforward: to capture and condense the steam expelled through the oven's air vent, and to manage the vapour released when the oven door is opened during service. The result is a measurable reduction in heat and moisture build-up within the kitchen space.

In a busy kitchen environment, unmanaged steam from a working combi oven can create uncomfortable conditions, accelerate surface condensation, and add unnecessary load to any wider ventilation system. The ConvoVent 4 addresses this at source. It activates automatically when the combi oven powers up, so there is no reliance on kitchen staff remembering to operate it separately — a practical advantage during a pressured service period.

Key operational characteristics worth noting:

• Automatic activation linked to oven power-up, requiring no manual switching
• Captures steam from the air vent and manages door-open vapour release
• No cold-water connection required, simplifying installation
• Suitable for retrofitting to existing Convotherm 6.10 and 10.10 units
• Low power consumption relative to the extraction task it performs

From an installation perspective, this unit does not require a plumbed water supply, which removes one common complication. It is worth noting, however, that this model handles condensation only — it does not provide fume or grease filtration. Sites running a gas combi oven should be aware that additional extraction and safety provisions are likely to be required beyond what this hood provides. A qualified ventilation engineer should assess the full setup before sign-off.

The ConvoVent 4 is well suited to operations already running Convotherm 6.10 or 10.10 electric combi ovens that want to manage steam output without a complex extraction installation. For sites needing active fume filtration in addition to condensation management, a higher-specification condensation hood variant would be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether this hood is the right fit for your oven setup or kitchen ventilation arrangement, we are happy to work through the details with you before you order.
