The Sammic CV extraction hood with steam condensation is a purpose-built accessory for Sammic rack conveyor dishwashers. Rather than allowing steam to vent freely into the kitchen environment, the unit captures and condenses steam at source, feeding recovered heat back into the incoming water supply to support the rinsing circuit. The result is a measurable reduction in ambient steam without requiring a separate mechanical extraction canopy above the machine.

In a busy warewashing environment, uncontrolled steam is a persistent operational problem — it raises kitchen temperatures, contributes to condensation on surfaces, and creates uncomfortable working conditions for staff. This unit addresses that directly. By condensing steam internally and recirculating the recovered thermal energy, it also reduces the temperature demand placed on the incoming water supply, which has a tangible effect on energy consumption over a full service period.

From a practical standpoint, the key operational advantages are:

  • Steam condensed at source, reducing ambient moisture in the warewashing area
  • Recovered heat fed back into the rinsing circuit, supporting wash efficiency
  • Removable filter to manage grease and particulate build-up, simplifying maintenance
  • Vertically mounted fan motor with double seal, designed to prevent water ingress
  • Reduces reliance on overhead canopy extraction in some installations

On installation, it is worth noting that this unit is supplied fitted to Sammic rack conveyor machines rather than as a universal retrofit. Compatibility with your specific machine configuration should be confirmed before ordering. It does not eliminate the need for kitchen ventilation entirely — local building regulations and the specific layout of your warewashing area will still govern what extraction provision is required.

This accessory is well suited to kitchens where steam management is a concern and where reducing ongoing energy costs in the warewashing section is a priority. It is most relevant in high-throughput sites running conveyor machines through extended service periods. If you are unsure whether this unit is appropriate for your current machine or your site's ventilation requirements, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently asked questions

Is this extraction hood compatible with all Sammic dishwashers?

The CV steam condensing unit is designed for Sammic rack conveyor dishwashers and is typically supplied already installed on those machines. It is not a universal retrofit accessory, so compatibility with a specific model should be confirmed before ordering. If you are unsure which Sammic machines this unit is suited to, we can advise based on your existing equipment.

Does fitting this unit mean I no longer need a ventilation canopy above the dishwasher?

The unit significantly reduces the volume of steam released into the kitchen, which can lessen the load on overhead extraction in some situations. However, it does not replace the need for proper kitchen ventilation — building regulations, local authority requirements, and your specific kitchen layout will still determine what extraction provision is necessary. We would always recommend confirming ventilation requirements with a qualified installer.

How does the steam condensation process help reduce running costs?

By capturing steam and using the recovered heat to raise the temperature of incoming rinse water, the unit reduces the energy needed to bring that water up to the required temperature during the wash cycle. Across a full service period on a busy conveyor machine, this thermal recovery can contribute to a meaningful reduction in energy consumption compared with allowing steam to vent and waste that heat entirely.
