Comfort Jet™:
Adjustable Comfort Air for Professional Kitchens
Comfort Jet™ Cool, Adjustable Air Right Where the Chef Needs It
The revolutionary factory-installed plenum from Halton that brings personalized comfort to your kitchen staff — without compromising capture, containment, or energy efficiency.
Comfort Jet™ is a factory-installed face-mounted plenum designed exclusively for Halton Capture Jet™ exhaust hoods.
It supplies adjustable comfort air directly to the chef or operator while maintaining perfect capture and containment of smoke, grease and heat.
Key features:
- Built-in active internal fan
- Specially designed and tested 4-way adjustable diffusers
- Operator can direct and control the airflow volume based on cooking position and heat load
Key Benefits – Why It’s a Game-Changer in 2026
- True operator comfort → Reduces heat stress and fatigue in high-intensity kitchens
- Energy efficient → Does not increase exhaust airflow or HVAC load
- Zero impact on performance → Works perfectly with Halton’s patented Capture Jet™ technology (up to 40% exhaust reduction)
- Hygienic & safe → Maintains full ETL/UL and NSF certification
- Premium build → Made from the same 304 stainless steel as the hood, with polished seams
- Factory-installed → No field modifications required

- Internal fan draws room air (120V or 208V).
- Air is delivered through precision adjustable diffusers at low velocity toward the chef’s chest/head area.
- Chef can fine-tune direction and volume on the spot.
- Does NOT interfere with the Capture Jet™ side jets or exhaust performance.
