Backguard Flue Risers

Backguard Flue Risers are vital components in commercial kitchen ventilation systems, crafted from corrosion-resistant metals and certified to meet NFPA standards. These risers are specifically used to direct flue gases safely away from high-heat cooking equipment like gas ranges, charbroilers, and deep fryers, helping to prevent heat damage and maintain proper venting. Well, in busy environments such as institutional cafeterias, ghost kitchens, or food trucks, space constraints and ease of cleaning are real concerns—so, a design that minimizes residue buildup and simplifies maintenance is just really beneficial. Foodservice operators and facility managers who need to meet fire safety codes and optimize airflow will find these risers particularly useful, especially when quick, safe, and compliant venting is a top priority in high-traffic kitchens.
