How AutoMist system works The majority of cooking grease that enters the air passes straight through a conven- tional baffle filter. That grease gets stuck to the interior of your hood and flue. If left unchecked, that grease can build up to the point of a serious fire hazard, providing ample fuel for a single errant spark to ignite. The AutoMist system fixes this problem by not allowing grease buildup to form in the first place. Once installed, you control the system through a wall-mounted con- trol box that contains the pump, detergent mixture and a timing mechanism. At an interval determined by the volume and type of cooking taking place, the pump engages and sprays the detergent mixture throughout the system. The spray apparatus is installed within the hood itself, behind the filters and up into the flue, ensuring complete coverage. The mixture breaks down any grease present, and the resulting fluid flows down through the hood and into a discharge collection container or a floor drain plumbed to a grease trap.
